Research on Delivery Times Scheduling with Sum of Logarithm Processing Times-Based Learning Effect

Abstract

In this paper, we address single-machine scheduling with sum of logarithm processing times-based learning effect. Under exponential past-sequence-dependent delivery times, we proved that the makespan and total completion time minimizations can be solved by the smallest processing time (SPT) first rule. Under the agreeable weight condition and agreeable due date condition, we show that the total weighted completion time minimization and maximum tardiness minimization can be solved in polynomial time, respectively.
