As a consequence of globalisation and increasing customer expectations, medium-sized less-than-truckload carriers operate together in cooperations. Each cooperative member faces a multitude of requirements when constructing a low-cost, feasible set of routes. Taking up this problem, we take...

In this paper we deal with the time complexity of single- and identical parallel-machine scheduling problems in which the durations and precedence constraints of the activities are stochastic. The stochastic precedence constraints are given by GERT networks. First, we sketch the basic concepts...
