We have developed a non-linear multi-objective model for optimal design of railway timetables. The objectives of the model are to maximize schedule reliability and minimize energy consumption, rolling stock and crew deployment. Metrics have been derived for each of these objectives. AHP is used...

We establish the computational complexity of the problem of minimizing makespan in a flowshop, where each jobs requires a pallet the entire time, from the start of its first operation until the completion of the last operation. We prove that the problem is NP-hard in the strong sense for m =2...

In the context of job scheduling, the time required to complete a task is related not only to the intrinsic difficulty of the task, but also to the operator's willingness to speed up (or slow down) its execution. In fact, service operators are sometimes authorized to flexibly calibrate job...
