Strategies to increase sustainability are of growing relevance for supply chains and especially for the management of production processes. In this paper, we build on existing literature in closed-loop supply chain management and consider a two-period game-theoretic model in which product...

Energy costs play an important role in industrial production and are closely related to environmental concerns. As sustainability aspects are coming into focus in recent years, energy-oriented objectives are increasingly being taken into account in scheduling. At the same time, requirements for...

Heuristics based on dispatching rules are still widely used in practice as methods for effective scheduling systems. Despite the successful development of various novel dispatching rules for traditional job shop scheduling environments, nearly none of these has been applied to cellular...

The customer order scheduling problem has garnered considerable attention in the recent scheduling literature. It is assumed that each of several customer orders consists of several jobs, and each customer order is completed only if each job of the order is completed. In this paper, we consider...
