The Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 49, No. 11 (Nov., 1998), pp. 1130-1145 (16 pages) We have developed a Genetic algorithm (GA) for the optimisation of maintenance overhaul ...

In this paper we introduce two general techniques for the design and analysis of approximation algorithms for NP-hard scheduling problems in which the objective is to minimize the weighted sum of the ...

An engineer elegantly solves a basic transit scheduling problem, potentially meaning shorter waits for riders. The question: how much slack should be schedulers of a bus or tram line add to keep ...

Computerized scheduling systems are a method of using scheduling algorithms and rules to help multiple people manage appointments and meetings. Computerized scheduling allows users to publicly share ...
