Single Machine Problem with Multi-Rate-Modifying Activities under a Time-Dependent Deterioration

The single machine scheduling problem with multi-rate-modifying activities under a time-dependent deterioration to minimize makespan is studied. After examining the characteristics of the problem, a number of properties and a lower bound are proposed. A branch and bound algorithm and a heuristic alg...
