文摘A batch is a subset of jobs which must be processed jointly in either serial or parallel form. For the single machine, batching, total completion time scheduling problems, the algorithmic aspects have been extensively studied in the literature. This paper presents the optimal hatching structures of the problems on the batching ways: all jobs in exactly N(arbitrary fix batch number and 1 〈 N 〈 n) batches.
