We consider the problem of scheduling n deteriorating jobs with release dates on a single batching machine. Each job's processing time is an increasing simple linear function of its starting time. The machine can process up to b jobs simultaneously as a batch. The objective is to minimize the maximum completion time, i.e., makespan. For the unbounded model, i.e., b = infinity, we obtain an O(n log n) dynamic programming algorithm. For the bounded model, i.e., b < n, we first show that the problem is binary NP-hard even if there are only two distinct release dates. Then we present O(nb) and O((nb/h)(h)) algorithms for the case where the job processing order is predetermined in advance and for the case where there are h, h >= 2, distinct deteriorating rates, respectively. Furthermore, we provide a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme for the case where the number of distinct release dates is a constant. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
