Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegration of Genetic Algorithm with Tabu Search for Job Shop Scheduling with Unordered Subsequence Exchange CrossoverR. Thamilselvan, P. BalasubramanieProblem statement: The problem of scheduling n jobs on m machines with each job having specific machine route has been researched over the decade. The Job Shop Scheduling (JSS) is one of the hardest combinatorial optimization problems. Each resource can process at most one job at a time. Approach: This study proposes a new approach to solve a Job Shop … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 24 Feb 2012 · 6,650 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Resource and Cost Management Scheme for Computational GridsV. K. Manavalasundaram, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: Autonomous decision making and resource scheduling are the main objectives of market-life computational grid. Resource providers and consumers make the scheduling decisions with cost and incentive factors. The two objectives are to maximize the success rate of job execution and to minimize fairness deviation among resources. The challenge is to develop a grid-scheduling scheme that enables individual participants … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 7 Feb 2012 · 6,565 accessesView PDFCite
