Abstract: The paper deals with the problem of minimizing the makespan in flow shops with random job processing times. We present recent advances in stochastic flow shop analysis in which the so-called reversibility property plays a crucial role. The paper is written in memory of Stefan Chanas, who observed first that this property must be utilized in order to tackle the complexity of stochastic flow shops.
