A scheduling policy for improving tardiness performance
Abstract:
This paper proposes a scheduling policy with a new dispatch rule, named RTSLACK, which is based on maximizing the slack time of the remaining tasks in the manufacturing resources queues. This scheduling policy is tested against three widely used dispatch rules, such as the Shortest Process Time rule (SPT), the Earliest Due Date rule (EDD), and the minimum slack time rule (SLACK). A generic form of the RTSLACK rule is also devised, with the aid of a stochastic hill climbing algorithm. A series of experiments with different manufacturing configurations and workload patterns are conducted. The results show that the proposed policy leads to an improved tardiness performance for specific workload patterns and it can act complementarily to the other rules, namely the SPT, the EDD and the SLACK
