job_assignment (cost_matrix): Find an optimal solution to the job assignment problem using branch and bound. Input: an nxn matrix where a row represents a person and a column represents the cost each ...

Let there be N workers and N jobs. Any worker can be assigned to perform any job, incurring some cost that may vary depending on the work-job assignment. It is required to perform all jobs by ...

Learn how to design a branch-and-bound algorithm for an integer programming problem in four steps: relax, branch, bound, and repeat. Discover tips and tricks to improve your algorithm.

One primary objective in solving the job shop scheduling problems is to minimize the makespan, which is a particularly hard combinatorial optimization problem. The problem has been known for years and ...

This paper addresses the single machine scheduling problem with a common due date aiming to minimize earliness and tardiness penalties. Due to its complexity, most of the previous studies in the ...
