Abstract
We study a single machine scheduling problem with the total weighted late work and the total rejection cost. The late work of a job is the part of this job executed after its due date, and the rejection cost of a job is the fee of rejecting to process it. We consider a Pareto scheduling and two restricted scheduling problems. The Pareto scheduling problem aims to find all non‐dominated values of the total weighted late work and the total rejection cost. The restricted scheduling problems are dedicated to minimizing the total weighted late work with the total rejection cost not greater than a given threshold, and minimizing the total rejection cost with the total weighted late work not greater than a given threshold, respectively. For the Pareto scheduling problem, we prove that it is binary NP‐hard by providing a pseudo‐polynomial time algorithm, and give a fully polynomial time approximation scheme (FPTAS). For the restricted scheduling problems, we prove that there are no FPTASes unless , which answers an open problem. Moreover, we develop relaxed FPTASes for these two restricted scheduling problems.
期刊介绍:
Submissions that are most appropriate for NRL are papers addressing modeling and analysis of problems motivated by real-world applications; major methodological advances in operations research and applied statistics; and expository or survey pieces of lasting value. Areas represented include (but are not limited to) probability, statistics, simulation, optimization, game theory, quality, scheduling, reliability, maintenance, supply chain, decision analysis, and combat models. Special issues devoted to a single topic are published occasionally, and proposals for special issues are welcomed by the Editorial Board.
