He, L. (author), de Weerdt, M.M. (author), Yorke-Smith, N. (author)An important class of scheduling problems is characterised by time-dependency and/or sequence-dependency with time windows. We introduce and analyze four algorithmic ideas for this class: a novel hybridization of adaptive large neighbourhood search (ALNS) and tabu search (TS), randomized generic neighbourhood operators, a partial sequence...conference paper 2019

He, L. (author), de Weerdt, M.M. (author), Yorke-Smith, N. (author)In intelligent manufacturing, it is important to schedule orders from customers efficiently. Make-to-order companies may have to reject or postpone orders when the production capacity does not meet the demand. Many such real-world scheduling problems are characterised by processing times being dependent on the start time (time dependency) or...journal article 2019

He, L. (author), Guijt, Arthur (author), de Weerdt, M.M. (author), Xing, Lining (author), Yorke-Smith, N. (author)The Order Acceptance and Scheduling (OAS) problem describes a class of real-world problems such as in smart manufacturing and satellite scheduling. This problem consists of simultaneously selecting a subset of orders to be processed as well as determining the associated schedule. A common generalization includes sequence-dependent setup times...journal article 2019

He, L. (author), de Weerdt, M.M. (author), Yorke-Smith, N. (author), Liu, Xiaolu (author), Chen, Yingwu (author)Agile Earth observation satellite (AEOS) scheduling is complex, due to long visible time windows and time-dependent transitions between observations. We introduce a generic approach suited for scheduling problems characterised by time-dependency and/or sequence-dependency. Our approach is a novel hybridization of adaptive large neighbourhood...conference paper 2018
