Model and metaheuristics for a scheduling problem integrating procurement, sale and distribution decisions

This paper presents an integrated approach for short-term supply chain management (SCM) at a fast moving consumer goods production plant. The problem is to determine the production quantities, to provide a detailed production schedule, to trigger the relev ...

Optimizing transshipment workloads in less-than-truckload cross-docks

Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

This paper presents a scheduling model to enhance cross-docking operations. It attempts to reduce the transshipment workload by minimizing the total number of products that require double-handling. We formalize the problem and represent its mathematical fo ...

Multiperiod Sequential Synthesis of Heat Exchanger Networks and Utility Systems including storages

François Maréchal, Alberto Mian

This work proposes a sequential approach for the multi-period synthesis of Heat Exchanger Networks (HEN) and Utility Systems of chemical processes and energy systems, including thermal, electric and material storage. The optimization approach is sequential ...

Job-aware Scheduling in Eagle: Divide and Stick to Your Probes

Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Florin Dinu, Pamela Isabel Delgado Borda

We present Eagle, a new hybrid data center scheduler for data-parallel programs. Eagle dynamically divides the nodes of the data center in partitions for the execution of long and short jobs, thereby avoiding head-of-line blocking. Furthermore, it provides ...

Hawk: Hybrid Datacenter Scheduling

Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Willy Zwaenepoel, Pamela Isabel Delgado Borda, Florin Dinu

This paper addresses the problem of efficient scheduling of large clusters under high load and heterogeneous workloads. A heterogeneous workload typically consists of many short jobs and a small number of large jobs that consume the bulk of the cluster's r ...

A two-stage stochastic programming approach to employee scheduling in retail outlets with uncertain demand

Colin Neil Jones

This paper describes an employee scheduling system for retail outlets; it is a constraint-based system that exploits forecasts and stochastic techniques to generate schedules meeting the demand for sales personnel. Uncertain scenarios due to fluctuating de ...

A production scheduling problem with uncertain sequence-dependent set-up times and random yield

Paul Xirouchakis, Byung Jun Joo

A scheduling problem in a real production line with uncertain sequence-dependent set-up times and a random yield is considered. The production line can produce multiple product types as production lots, each of which is composed of a number of products of ...

A Tighter Analysis of Work Stealing

Nicolas Gabriel Gast

Classical list scheduling is a very popular and efficient technique for scheduling jobs in parallel platforms. However, with the increasing number of processors, the cost for managing a single centralized list becomes prohibitive. The objective of this wor ...
