title = "Heuristic for three machines flow shop scheduling problem to minimize the weighted mean flow time",
abstract = "In practical situations, machines might not be available during certain time of period due to deterministic or stochastic causes in many production systems. And, processing times are always not exact as they have been predicted. In this paper, we attempted to study the three machines flow shop scheduling problem in which probabilities are associated with processing times of jobs involving transportation time, machine breakdown interval and weights of jobs. A simple heuristic approach is proposed to find optimal or near optimal sequence minimizing the weighted mean production flow time. A numerical example has been provided to illustrate and clarify the proposed algorithm.",
