Parallel Robot Scheduling to Minimize Mean Tardiness with Unequal Release Date and Precedence Constraints Using a Hybrid Intelligent System

This paper considers the problem of scheduling a given number of jobs on a specified number of identical parallel robots with unequal release dates and precedence constraints in order to minimize mean tardiness. This problem is strongly NP-hard. The author proposes a hybrid intelligent solution syst...
