Family sequencing and cooperation

Abstract: This paper analyzes a single-machine scheduling problem with family setup times both from an optimization and a cost allocation perspective. In a family sequencing situation jobs are processed on a single machine, there is an initial processing order on the jobs, and every job within a family has an identical cost function that depends linearly on its completion time. Moreover, a job does not require a setup when preceded by another job from the same family while a family specific setup time is required when a job follows a member of some other family.
