These topics include a road network maintenance project, cost reduction of the subcontracted resources, a variant of the relocation problem, a network of activities with generally distributed durations through a Markov chain, idea on how to improve the return loading rate problem by integrating the sub-tour reversal approach with the method of the theory of constraints, an extended solution method for optimizing the bi-objective no-idle permutation flowshop scheduling problem, the burn-in (B\/I) procedure, the Pareto-scheduling problem with two competing agents, and three preemptive Pareto-scheduling problems with two competing agents, among others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe hope that the book will be of interest to those working in the area of various scheduling problems and provide a bridge to facilitate the interaction between researchers and practitioners in scheduling questions. Although discrete mathematics is a common method to solve scheduling problems, the further development of this method is limited due to the lack of general principles, which poses a major challenge in this research field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chin-Chia Wu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3036530185\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783036530185\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mdpi AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/29\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.69d","brand":"Chin-Chia Wu","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48113794908415,"sku":"9783036530185","price":63.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_37935c0a-2539-4e31-8723-fa98eb68ad8f.jpg?v=1769617344","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/theoretical-and-computational-research-in-chin-chia-wu-9783036530185","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
