Improved Exact Methods for Solving No-Wait Flowshop Scheduling Problems With Due Date Constraints

The no-wait flowshop scheduling problem with hard due date constraints is critical to operations in many industries, such as plastic, chemical, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. However, to date, there is a lack of effective optimization algorithms for this NP-hard problem. This paper develops a new...
