Scheduling: Theory, Algorithms, and Systems

by Michael Pinedo

Aimed at graduate students and practitioners, this text covers both theoretical and applied aspects of the scheduling of resources in the manufacturing and service industries. Drawing upon his experience in developing courses at Columbia U., Pinedo discusses deterministic and stochastic models for parallel machine models, flexible flow shops, and open shops. The second edition also features five new chapters on such topics as single machine scheduling with release dates and rolling horizon procedures. Annotation c.
