Original abstract

Job-shop scheduling problems belong to the class of NP-hard problems and therefore exact solution methods can be used only for very simple cases. This paper focuses on solving this problem by means of stochastic heuristic methods (simulated annealing, tabu search and genetic algorithms). It presents computational results achieved for two typical representation schemes using standard benchmark problems.
