We address the problem of scheduling a flowshop plant with uncertain process-ing times described by discrete probability distributions. The objective is to find a sequence of batches that minimizes...
Optimal Process Design Under Uncertainty. (1987)
Halemane, K.P., Grossmann, I.E.
A rigorous mathematical formulation is presented for the problem of optimal design under uncertainty. This formulation involves a nonlinear infinite programming problem in which an optimization is...
