| Abstract | This article addresses the problem of scheduling n jobs with a common due date on a machine subject to stochastic breakdowns to minimize absolute early-tardy penalties. We investigate the problem under the conditions that the uptimes follow an exponential distribution, and the objective measure in detail is to minimize the expected sum of the absolute deviations of completion times from the common due date. We proceed to study in two versions (the downtime follows an exponential distribution or is a constant entailed for the repeat model job), one of which is the so-called preempt-resume version, the other of which is the preempt-repeat version. Three terms of work have been done. (i) Formulations and Preliminaries. A few of necessary definitions, relations and basic facts are established. In particular, the conclusion that the expectation of the absolute deviation of the completion time about a job with deterministic processing time t from a due date is a semi-V-shape function in t has been proved. (ii) Properties of Optimal Solutions. A few characteristics of optimal solutions are established. Most importantly, the conclusion that optimal solutions possess semi-V-shape property has been proved. (iii) Algorithm. Some computing problems on searching for optimal solutions are discussed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
