Abstract

We consider a single‐machine scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing the mean (or equivalently, total) tardiness and earliness when due dates may differ among jobs. Some properties of the optimal solution are discussed, and these properties are used to develop both optimal and heuristic algorithms. Results of computational tests indicate that optimal solutions can be found for problems with up to 20 jobs, and that two of the heuristic procedures provide optimal or very near optimal solutions in many instances. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
