Abstract

In this paper we study the time complexities of some two‐ and three‐stage no‐wait flowshop makespan scheduling problems where, in some stage, all the jobs require a constant processing time and the stage may consist of parallel identical machines. Polynomial time algorithms are presented for certain problems, while several others are proved to be strongly NP‐complete.
