Abstract

We consider parallel-machine scheduling with deteriorating jobs and DeJong's learning effect. We focus on the problems to minimize the total completion time and the makespan. We show that the former is polynomially solvable, while the latter is NP-hard, for which we provide a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme.
