Due dates in job shop scheduling
Samuel Eilon,I. G. Chowdhury +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of three loading rules (FIFO, St and SI∗) on waiting times, on missing due dates and on notional cost functions is examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Minimising Waiting Time Variance in the Single Machine Problem
Samuel Eilon,I. G. Chowdhury +1 more
TL;DR: A heuristic method is proposed for solving the problem where n is large; this method requires very little computing and was found to produce very good results for a sample of problems of varying size.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experiments with the SIX rule in job-shop scheduling:
TL;DR: This paper reports on the results of various experiences with the loading rule SIx for scheduling jobs and compares its performance with two other, general ly more popular, methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies in a Simulated Job Shop
Samuel Eilon,I. G. Chowdhury +1 more
TL;DR: This study is particularly concerned with the case when arrivals are in batches, either of regular size or where the batch size is Poisson distributed, and when the batches arrive at regular time intervals, and certain empirical relationships between three loading rules are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
A note on steady-state results in queueing and job-shop scheduling:
Samuel Eilon,I. G. Chowdhury +1 more
TL;DR: The main objective is still to derive values for such variables as the average waiting time and the average queue length that may be expected in the long run.
