Abstract
In this paper, we propose the use of the desirability function in the Shifting Bottleneck (SB) heuristic for complex job shops to enable the of both makespan and total weighted tardiness. We implement the desirability function both at the toolgroup or sub-problem procedure (SSP) level and at the machine criticality level (MCM) of the SB heuristic. We test our approaches on the "Minifab" model by El Adl et al. (1996), the most succinct representation of a wafer fab in the open literature. Given the decision makers weights on the two objectives, the results show that the desirability-based approach leads to solutions better than those generated by the SB-based total weighted tardiness approach and commonly used dispatching rules.
