摘要
In this paper, we study the single machine total completion scheduling problem subject to a period of maintenance. We propose an approximation algorithm to solve the problem with a worst case error bound of 3/17. Furthermore, an example is provided to show that the bound is tight. Computational experiments and an analysis are given afterwards. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
