Heuristic algorithms for multiprocessor task scheduling in a two-stage hybrid flow-shop. (Q1399584)

The problem considered is one of scheduling tasks in multiprocessor systems. The authors extend multiprocessor task scheduling research by considering a multi-stage setting for the processor environment. They also broaden the scope of research in this area by proposing heuristic algorithms. Extensive computational tests show a good performance of the proposed heuristics for the two-stage hybrid flow shop.
