Abstract

This paper studies a combinatorial optimization problem which is obtained by combining the two-machine flow shop scheduling problem and the shortest path problem. The objective of the obtained problem is to select a subset of jobs constitutes a feasible solution to the shortest path problem, and to execute the selected jobs on two-machine flow shop to minimize the makespan. We argue that this problem is NP-hard, and propose two approximation algorithms with constant factor guarantee. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
