FLow Shop Scheduling Theory: Jobs Waiting Time Minimization

This book presents a structured exposition of flow shop scheduling with the primary objective of minimizing the waiting time of jobs. It begins with the fundamental concepts of Operations Research and classical flow shop scheduling, providing a solid theoretical foundation for readers. The book then develops scheduling models for deterministic environments as well as extended formulations that address uncertainty in processing times. Fuzzy set theory is employed to represent imprecise processing durations, enabling realistic and effective scheduling decisions. Emphasis is placed on modeling, analytical reasoning, and solution procedures supported by illustrative examples, making the book a useful reference for students, researchers, and practitioners in production and operations management.
