Abstract
This paper studies uniform parallel-machine scheduling problem with deteriorating jobs and rejection. The processing time of each job is a linear nondecreasing function of its starting time. A job can be rejected by paying a penalty cost. The objective is to minimize the sum of the total load of the accepted jobs on all machines and the total rejection penalties of the rejected jobs. We propose a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS) for this problem.
