This paper studies inventory constraints in a machine scheduling environment. Jobs can add and remove items of different types to the inventory and from the inventory, respectively. Jobs removing items cannot be processed if the required amount of items is not available. We first have a look at...

We consider the problem of allocating containers to ships in which the size of container is 1 or 2, and each ship has its own capacity and fixed departure time. The fixed departure times implies the completion times of containers belonging to the same ship are identical. As objectives, Lmax,...

This paper focuses on Single machine scheduling subject to inventory constraints. Jobs add and remove items to and from, respectively, the inventory. Jobs that remove items cannot be processed if the required number of items is not available. We consider scheduling problems on a Single machine...

We consider a project scheduling problem where the precedence constraints graph is an out-tree. The processing times can be compressed by using additional resources, which causes cost and simultaneously reduces the processing times of jobs. The objective is to minimize the sum of total lateness...
