Makespan minimization in no-wait flow shops: A polynomial time approximation scheme
Abstract
We investigate the approximability of a no-wait permutation flow shop scheduling problem under the makespan criterion. We present a polynomial time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the problem on any fixed number of machines.
