摘要
This paper gives the sensitivity analysis for some scheduling problems, including the following: what are the limits to a parameter change such that the solution remain optimal? Given a specific change of a parameter, what is the new optimal cost? Given a specific change of a parameter, what is a new optimal solution? Here, the concern is mainly with the sensitivity analysis for some single-machine and flowshop scheduling problems with polynomial time algorithms. It is shown that, for these problems, the sensitivity analysis results depend on the positions of jobs with changed parameters.
