Extended deadline for the special issue on Scheduling Theory and Algorithms for Sustainable Manufacturing - Deadline: April 30, 2024

• Extended deadline for submissions to the special issue on

  https://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/special_issues/7C92M715OY

  The aim of this Special Issue is to present state-of-the art mathematical models and algorithms providing efficient solutions for practical planning and scheduling issues in sustainable manufacturing and logistics. Currently, the production and logistics systems for goods and services are faced with both production cost optimization and scarcity of resources. Scheduling plays a central role and offers the possibility to:

  • Reduce production waste,
  • Manage efficiently and limit the consumption of material resources and energy,
  • use efficiently new energy sources, especially renewable ones.

  Potential topics to be addressed in this issue on the contributions of scheduling theory and algorithm for sustainable manufacturing include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Consideration of energy constraints in scheduling and planning;
  • Green scheduling approaches in Industry 4.0;
  • Advanced scheduling and planning algorithms for minimization of waste;
  • Contributions of scheduling and planning theory for minimization of the carbon emissions;
  • Multi-objective scheduling problems taking into account the sustainability criteria.
  • Exact and approximate models and methods for sustainable scheduling and planning;
  • Industrial applications of advanced scheduling and planning algorithms.
