The classical scheduling literature considers many problems where a given set of jobs must be processed at minimum cost, subject to various resource constraints. The literature only considers the issue of revenue generation in a very limited way, by allowing a job to remain unprocessed and its...

This paper considers the coordination of pricing and scheduling decisions in a make-to-order environment. Following common industry practice, we assume knowledge of a deterministic demand function that is nonincreasing in price. We consider three alternative measures of scheduling cost: total...

Motivated by applications in the computer and food catering service industries, we study an integrated scheduling model of production and distribution operations. In this model, a set of jobs (i.e., customer orders) are first processed in a processing facility (e.g., manufacturing plant or...

Dynamic pricing problems have received considerable attention in the operations management literature in the last two decades. Most of the work has focused on structural results and managerial insights using stylized models without considering business rules and issues commonly encountered in...

We study an integrated production and distribution scheduling model in a two-stage supply chain consisting of one or more suppliers, a warehouse, and a customer. Each supplier produces a different product at a constant rate. There is a setup time and a setup cost per production run for each...
