Title
Theory of Scheduling (Dover Books on Computer Science),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
This comprehensive text explores the mathematical models underlying the theory of scheduling. Organized according to scheduling problem type, it examines three solution techniques: algebraic, probabilistic, and Monte Carlo simulation by computer. Topics include problems of sequence, measures for schedule evaluation, finite sequencing for a single machine, and further problems with one operation per job. Additional chapters cover flowshop scheduling, the general n/m jobshop problem, general network problems related to scheduling, selection disciplines in a singleserver queuing system, singleserver queuing systems with setup classes, multipleserver queuing models, and experimental investigation of the continuous jobshop process. 1967 edition.
