Abstract
Scheduling two-stage jobs on multiple two-stage flowshops is studied. A new formulation for configurations of the scheduling is proposed, leading directly to improvements on complexity of scheduling algorithms for the problem. Motivated by observations in practice, we present a deeper study on the structures of the problem that leads to a new approach that gives very significant improved scheduling algorithms for the problem when the costs of the two stages differ significantly.
