摘要
In this paper, we study a new scheduling and outsourcing model with multiple customers in which jobs can be processed by either in-house machine or outsourcing machine.All processed jobs have to be delivered in batches to their respective customers and each shipment incurs a delivery cost as well as a fixed amount of time. We discuss three commonly used objective functions, analyze their complexity and solve them by dynamic programming algorithms.
