Fast Approximation for Scheduling One Machine

We propose an approximation algorithm for scheduling jobs with release and delivery times on a single machine with the objective to minimize the makespan. The algorithm is based on an implicit enumeration of the set of complete solutions in a search tree. By analyzing specific structural properties...
