Heuristic control of multiple batch processors with incompatible job families and future job arrivals

We analyse the problem of minimising the mean cycle time of a batch processing stage containing K > 1 batch processors in parallel with incompatible job families and future job arrivals. We provide an integer linear programming formulation and a dynamic program formulation for small problem insta...
