In this paper, we consider the rescheduling problem for jobs on a single machine with release dates to minimize total sequence disruption under a limit on the makespan. We show that the considered problem can be solved in polynomial time. Consequently, the rescheduling problem for jobs on a single machine with release dates to minimize makespan under a limit on the total sequence disruption can also be solved in polynomial time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
