Abstract: It is well-known that a single machine scheduling problem of minimizing the total tardiness is NP-hard. Recently, Liu, Ng and Cheng solved some special hierarchical minimization problems with total tardiness as the primary criterion by the Algorithm TAP (Two Assignment Problems) inO(n3)time. And in this paper we present some algorithms for these problems with running timeO(n log n).
