This study presents a production scheduling for unrelated parallel machines with machine and job sequence-dependent setup times. The system performance measures to minimize include makespan, total tardiness, and number of tardy jobs. The aim of the study is to develop a solution methodology that...

Purpose: Cloud manufacturing (CM) represents a new manufacturing paradigm that integrates distributed resources to provide on-demand services. The high consumer demand from various locations, coupled with the customizability and complexity of manufacturing, complicates task scheduling. In this...
