Abstract

The previous chapters have outlined the industrial scheduling problems for which we wish to develop scheduling algorithms, the advantages of decomposition algorithms for these problems and a review of decomposition methods that have been developed for various scheduling problems in the past. In particular, Chapter 5 discussed workcenter-based decomposition algorithms for the job shop environment without sequence-dependent setup times. These approaches are generic in that they do not exploit special structure in the routings or other aspects of the problem.
