摘要
We study the problem of scheduling n jobs with release dates on m identical parallel batch machines to minimize the total weighted completion time of the jobs. A batch machine with capacity B (B < n) is able to process a batch of up to B jobs simultaneously and the time needed is equal to the maximum processing time among the jobs in the batch. This model is motivated by applications in the manufacturing of integrated circuits. In this paper, we present a polynomial time approximation scheme (PTAS) for this problem.
