Shi Qiang Liu, Erhan Kozan, Scheduling Trains with Priorities: A No-Wait Blocking Parallel-Machine Job-Shop Scheduling Model, Transportation Science, Vol. 45, No. 2 (May 2011), pp. 175-198 ...

The paper is devoted to some single machine scheduling problems, where job processing times are defined by functions dependent on their positions in the sequence. It is assumed that each job is ...

Scenarios they seek to address include multivariate optimization problems where the problem space is, well, deep. It’s not a simple problem that the deep space network job scheduler seeks to solve.
