Abstract: Abstract In this chapter we discuss scheduling problems and how methods from computational intelligence can be applied to them. We start with general considerations on scheduling problems and discuss variants and some simple solution concepts. After that some standard scheduling problems are discussed in more detail followed by a discussion of further scheduling problems relevant to logistics and supply chain management. After that we discus solution approaches from the field of computational intelligence with emphasis on encodingencoding issues, especially in the context of using evolutionary algorithms. The paper ends with a discussion of the importance and success of using respective solution approaches especially from the area of metaheuristicsmetaheuristics .
