In the routing open-shop problem, jobs are located at nodes of an undirected transportation network, and the machines travel on the network to execute jobs in the open-shop environment. The machines are initially located at the same node (depot) and must return to the depot after completing all the jobs. It is required to find a nonpreemptive schedule that minimizes the makespan. We prove that the problem is NP-hard even on a two-node network with two machines, and even on a two-node network with two jobs and m machines. We develop polynomial-time approximation heuristics and obtain bounds on their approximation performance. |
