Abstract: |
Local search is an established meta
heuristic for scheduling problems. To avoid of getting stucked
in a local optimum, the achieved solution is destroyed. Usually, this is done
randomly. Here, two problem specific procedures are suggested. One focuses on
jobs with the highest difference between the actual processing time and the
net processing time of the job and the other one tries to remove jobs which
causes the highest idle time for themselves or other jobs. Comprehensive
simulations of test scheduling problems as well as a real world application show
that both problem specific procedures outperform a random procedure. |
