We present an effective scheduling heuristic for realistic production planning in a petrochemical blending plant? The considered model takes into account orders spanning a multi-product portfolio with multiple bills of materials per product, that need to be scheduled on shared production...

Distributed systems are efficient means of realizing high-performance computing (HPC). They are used in meeting the demand of executing large-scale high-performance computational jobs. Scheduling the tasks on such computational resources is one of the prime concerns in the heterogeneous...
