Parallel Machine Scheduling

Parallel Machine Scheduling is the process of efficiently assigning a set of tasks to multiple machines that can work at the same time. The goal is to complete these tasks as quickly as possible while considering various constraints, like machine capabilities and task deadlines. Each machine can handle tasks simultaneously, allowing for a faster overall completion time. This approach is commonly used in manufacturing and production environments where tasks need to be processed efficiently to maximize productivity and meet delivery targets. Effective scheduling ensures optimal use of resources and improved workflow.
