Scheduling to minimize the weighted sum of completion times with secondary criteria

Richard N. Burns

Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, 1976, vol. 23, issue 1, 125-129

Abstract: A result of Smith previously published in this journal [3], on the use of secondary criteria in scheduling problems, is shown to be incorrect and a counter example is presented. Heck and Roberts [2] suggested that their paper would be extended in the same way Smith's algorithm was. A new algorithm is given that converges to a local optimum for both problems.
