We consider single machine scheduling problems with learning/deterioration effects and time-dependent processing times, with due date assignment consideration, and our objective is to minimize the weighted number of tardy jobs. By reducing all versions of the problem to an assignment problem, we solve them inO(n4) time. For some important special cases, the time complexity can be improved to beO(n2) using dynamic programming techniques.

We studied single machine scheduling problems in which the jobs need to be delivered to customers after processing. It is assumed that the delivery times are proportional to the length of the already processed jobs, and a job's processing time depended on its position in a sequence. The objective functions include total earliness, the weighted number of tardy jobs and the cost of due date assignment. We analyzed these problems with two different due date assignment methods and conclude that the problems are polynomial time solvable.

We consider a two-machine flow shop scheduling with two properties. The first is that each due date is assigned for a specific position different from the traditional definition of due dates, and the second is that a consistent pattern exists in the processing times within each job and each machine. The objective is to minimize maximum tardiness, total tardiness, or total number of tardy jobs. We prove the strong NP-hardness and inapproximability, and investigate some polynomially solvable cases. Finally, we develop heuristics and verify their performances through numerical experiments.
