The total tardiness minimization when processing independent tasks with a common due date on the identical parallel machines with an arbitrary starting times
Pavlov A.A., Misjura E.B.
The problem of scheduling independent tasks with a common due date and equal weights in the case of arbitrary starting times of machines is considered. The PDC-algorithm to solve it is proposed. The optimality signs of the polynomial component of the algorithm are formulated. The upper bound of deviation of a solution from optimum is obtained. An example of the problem solution is given.
