Description for Stochastic Scheduling: Expectation-Variance Analysis of a Schedule
hardcover. This book addresses the problem of the uncertainty of processing time in a stochastic environment. Num Pages: 208 pages, 30 b/w illus. 43 tables. BIC Classification: TJFM. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 261 x 186 x 19. Weight in Grams: 672.
Stochastic scheduling is in the area of production scheduling. There is a dearth of work that analyzes the variability of schedules. In a stochastic environment, in which the processing time of a job is not known with certainty, a schedule is typically analyzed based on the expected value of a performance measure. This book addresses this problem and presents algorithms to determine the variability of a schedule under various machine configurations and objective functions. It is intended for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in manufacturing, operations management, applied mathematics, and computer science, and it is also a good reference book ... Read more
