Definition

A production‑scheduling model in which n jobs must each be processed on the same sequence of m machines (identical route for every job); the model represents processing times, possible machine constraints and objective functions (e.g., makespan, total tardiness, throughput) and seeks a schedule that assigns start times and job orderings to optimize the chosen objective.
