Lawler’s Algorithm • Backward algorithm which gives an optimal schedule for • 1 | prec | hmaxhmax= max ( h1(C1), ... ,hn(Cn) ) • hjare nondecreasing cost functions • Notation • makespan Cmax = pj completion of the last job • J set of jobs already scheduled • they have to be processed during the time interval • JC complement ofset J, set of jobs still to be scheduled • J' JC set of jobs that can be scheduled immediately before set J (schedulable jobs)
Lawler’s Algorithm for 1 | | hmax Step 1. J = JC = {1,...,n} k = n Step 2. Let j* be such that Place j* in J in the k-th order position Delete j* from JC Step 3. If JC = then Stop else k = k - 1 go to Step 2

Let j* be such that Place j* in J in the k-th order position Delete j* from JC Modify J' to represent the set of jobs which can be scheduledimmediately before set J. Step 3. If JC = then Stop else k = k - 1 go to Step 2

Branch-and-bound algorithm Step 1 Initialise P = Si(determine the partitions) Initialise fbound Step 2 Remove best partition Si from P Reduce or subdivide Si into Sij Update fbound P = PSij For all SijP do if lower bound of f(Sij) > fbound then remove Sij from P Step 3 If not termination condition then go to Step 2

Lower bound: • Preemptive earliest due date (EDD) rule is optimal for 1 | rjprmp | Lmax • A preemptive schedule will have a maximum lateness not greater than a non-preemtive schedule. • If a preemptive EDD rule gives a nonpreemptive schedule then all nodes with a larger lower bound can be disregarded.
