Abstract

Wang et al. (J Operat Res Soc 62: 1898-1902, 2011) studied the m identical parallel-machine and unrelated parallel-machine scheduling with a deteriorating maintenance activity to minimize the total completion time. They showed that each problem can be solved in O(n2m+3) time, where n is the number of jobs. In this note, we discuss the unrelated parallel-machine setting and show that the problem can be optimally solved by a lower order algorithm.
