Abstract

Scheduling problems with variable processing times and past-sequence-dependent delivery times are considered on a single-machine. The delivery times of jobs depend on their waiting times of processing. A job’s actual processing time depends on its position in a sequence, its starting time and its allocation of non-renewable resources. Under the linear resource consumption function, the goal (version) is to determine the optimal sequence and optimal resource allocation such that the sum of scheduling cost and total resource consumption cost is minimized. Under the convex resource consumption function, three versions of the scheduling cost and total resource consumption cost are discussed. We prove that these four versions can be solved in polynomial time, respectively. Some applications are also given by using the scheduling cost, which involve the makespan, total completion time, total absolute differences in completion times (TADC), and total absolute differences in waiting times (TADW).
