The objective is to minimize the total completion time. After giving the integer programming model of the problem, a Lagrangian relaxation problem (LRP) is introduced by relaxing the constraint set concerning the additional resource. A general subgradient optimization procedure is applied to a series of LRPs to maximize the lower bound for the original problem. To generate efficient upper bounds for the original problem, a constraint programming (CP) model is applied by taking the LRP solutions as input regarding the machine assignments. For the problem, a pure CP model is also developed to evaluate its performance. All the solution approaches are evaluated through a range of test problems. The initial computational results show that Lagrangian-based CP approach produces promising results especially for larger problem sizes.Computer scienceArtificial intelligenceOperations researchManagement scienceConference proceeding1611-3349306067300010Q45879
