This paper describes the development of a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model for the standard N-job, M-machine flowshop sequencing problem. Based on an earlier all-integer model developed ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the equivalence between a class of mixed-integer linear and linear programming prob-lems. By utilizing the addition of slack variables theorem, we demonstrate that ...

This paper presents a novel approach to the joint optimization of job scheduling and data allocation in grid computing environments. We formulate this joint optimization problem as a mixed integer ...
