Abstract: Abstract In this paper, we consider due-window assignment scheduling in the proportionate flow shop setting with position-dependent weights where the weights depend on the position in which a job is scheduled. Under the common due-window (CONW) and slack due-window (SLKW) assignment methods, the location of the window and its properties are established. The objective is to determine the sequence of all jobs to minimize the total weighted cost function where the total weighted cost function must also consider the window start time and size. Based on these considerations, the corresponding algorithm and algorithm complexity are proposed.
