This paper deals with energy-related job scheduling for a foundry, in order to minimise the electricity bill. Accounting for energy and human resource constraints leads to better solutions in terms of cost and overall energy consumption. We propose a hybrid heuristic based on a two-step...

This paper considers the problem of minimizing the traffic complexities in an airspace of adjacent sectors. The traffic complexity of a sector is determined by the numbers of flights within it, near its border, and on non-level segments within it. The dimensions of complexity resolution involve...
