Resource-constrained Project Scheduling with Time-of-Use Energy Tariffs and Machine States: A Logic-based Benders Decomposition Approach

arXiv:2601. 06542v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP) with Time-of-Use (TOU) energy tariffs and machine states, a variant of RCPSP for production scheduling, where energy price is part of the criteria and one highly energy-demanding machine can be in one of the following three states: proc, idle, or off.

The Proxy Benders Decomposition

arXiv:2606. 07403v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Benders decomposition is a fundamental framework for solving large-scale mixed-integer optimization problems with complicating variables that, when fixed, yield significantly easier subproblems.

Finding Optimal Cost-Bounded Plan Reductions: Refined Model

arXiv:2607. 25484v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In some real applications a plan may later become unfeasible due to newly imposed budget constraints, yet, at the same time, using only the original actions of the plan and their order is mandatory.

A Learning Method with Gap-Aware Generation for Heterogeneous DAG Scheduling

arXiv:2603. 23249v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Efficient scheduling of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) is a core problem in large-scale data-intensive computing systems, where query plans, data-processing workloads, and computation graphs consist of dependent tasks competing for limited heterogeneous resource pools.
