Solving a multiprocessor problem by column generation and branch-and-price

This work presents an algorithm for solving exactly a scheduling problem with identical parallel machines and malleable tasks, subject to arbitrary release dates and due dates. The objective is to minimize a function of late work and setup costs. A task is malleable if we can freely change the set o...
