A Sequential Pair Exchange Approach for Solving Single-Machine Scheduling Problems with General Earliness-Tardiness Penalties.

Paper
This study focuses on a class of single-machine scheduling problems with a common due date where the objective is to minimize the total earliness-tardiness penalty for the jobs. A sequential pair exchange approach utilizing a job exchange procedure and three previously established properties in common due-date scheduling was developed and tested with a set of benchmark problems. The developed approach generates results better than not only those of the existing dedicated heuristics but also in many cases those of meta-heuristic approaches. And the developed approach performs consistently well in various job settings with respect to the number of jobs, processing time and earliness-tardiness penalties for the jobs.
