Abstract Imperfect processes experience fault productions over time due to specific causes. Integrating the statistical process control, maintenance policy, and economic production quantity has led to more favorable results for the imperfect processes in literature. When monitoring a process,...

In this study, a static single machine scheduling problem is investigated, where processing times are stochastic, due dates are deterministic and inserted idle time is allowed. Two objective functions are simultaneously taken into account, minimization of mean completion time and minimization of...
