摘要
The considered coupled task problem (CTP) is to schedule n jobs, each consisting of two (sub)tasks, on a single machine. Exact delay times are between the subtasks of a job and the makespan has to be minimized. It has been proven that the problem is strongly NP-hard in general case (see Orman and Potts (1997)), even if the lengths of the subtasks are identical. This paper considers a special case of CTP where there are jobs with two different delay times only. The complexity status of this problem is unknown. We will present an algorithm - called First Fit Decreasing (FFD) - and we will prove that its approximation ratio is in the interval (1. 57894 , 1. 57916). (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
