Das Jobshop-Problem

Ein häufiges Problem bei der Terminplanung ist das Jobshop, in dem mehrere Jobs die auf mehreren Rechnern verarbeitet werden.

Jeder Job besteht aus einer Reihe von Aufgaben, die in einem bestimmten und jede Aufgabe muss auf einem bestimmten Rechner verarbeitet werden. Der Job könnte beispielsweise die Herstellung eines einzelnen Verbraucherartikels sein, z. B. Automobil. Das Problem besteht darin, die Aufgaben auf den Rechnern so zu planen, dass der length des Zeitplans: die Zeit, die benötigt wird, um alle Jobs abzuschließen.

Es gibt mehrere Einschränkungen für das Job-Shop-Problem:

• Es kann keine Aufgabe für einen Job gestartet werden, bis die vorherige Aufgabe für diesen Job abgeschlossen.
• Eine Maschine kann jeweils nur an einer Aufgabe arbeiten.
• Eine gestartete Aufgabe muss abgeschlossen sein.

Beispielproblem

Im Folgenden finden Sie ein einfaches Beispiel für ein Job-Shop-Problem, in dem jede Aufgabe mit einem Label versehen ist. durch ein Zahlenpaar (m, p), wobei m die Nummer der Maschine ist, der die Aufgabe am Tag verarbeitet werden muss und p die Verarbeitungszeit der Aufgabe ist, also die wie viel Zeit er benötigt. (Die Nummerierung von Jobs und Maschinen beginnt bei 0.)

• Job 0 = [(0, 3), (1, 2), (2, 2)]
• job 1 = [(0, 2), (2, 1), (1, 4)]
• Job 2 = [(1, 4), (2, 3)]

Im Beispiel hat Job 0 drei Aufgaben. Die erste (0, 3) muss verarbeitet werden auf Maschine 0 in 3 Zeiteinheiten. Die zweite, (1, 2) muss am Maschine 1 in 2 Zeiteinheiten und so weiter. Insgesamt gibt es acht Aufgaben.

Eine Lösung für das Problem

Eine Lösung für das Job-Shop-Problem ist die Zuweisung einer Startzeit für jede die die oben genannten Einschränkungen erfüllt. Das folgende Diagramm zeigt eine mögliche Lösung für das Problem:

Sie können prüfen, ob sich die Aufgaben für die einzelnen Aufträge nicht überschneiden in der durch das Problem vorgegebenen Reihenfolge.

Diese Lösung hat 12 Längen, also das erste Mal, dass alle drei Jobs abgeschlossen sind. Wie Sie jedoch unten sehen werden, ist dies keine optimale Lösung, um das Problem zu lösen.

Variablen und Einschränkungen für das Problem

In diesem Abschnitt wird beschrieben, wie Sie die Variablen und Einschränkungen für die Problem. Lassen Sie zuerst task(i, j) die j-te Aufgabe in der Sequenz für Job i kennzeichnen. Für Beispiel: task(0, 2) gibt die zweite Aufgabe für Job 0 an, die das Paar (1, 2) in der Problembeschreibung.

Definieren Sie als Nächstes t_{i, j} als Startzeit für task(i, j). Die t_i, j sind die Variablen für das Job-Shop-Problem. Ein besteht die Lösung darin, Werte für diese Variablen zu bestimmen, die den Anforderung des Problems.

Es gibt zwei Arten von Einschränkungen für das Job-Shop-Problem:

• Vorrangbeschränkungen – Sie ergeben sich aus der Bedingung, dass zwei aufeinanderfolgende Aufgaben im selben Auftrag erledigt, muss die erste abgeschlossen sein, bevor die kann gestartet werden. task(0, 2) und task(0, 3) sind beispielsweise aufeinanderfolgende Aufgaben für Job 0. Da die Verarbeitungszeit für task(0, 2) 2 beträgt, ist die Startzeit für task(0, 3) muss mindestens zwei Zeiteinheiten nach der Startzeit für Aufgabe 2 liegen. (Vielleicht besteht Aufgabe 2 darin, eine Tür zu streichen und es dauert zwei Stunden, bis die Farbe gestrichen wird) dry.) Als Ergebnis erhalten Sie die folgende Einschränkung: <ph type="x-smartling-placeholder">
  </ph>
  • t_{0, 2} + 2 <= t_{0, 3}
• Keine Überschneidungsbeschränkungen: Diese ergeben sich aus der Einschränkung, Maschine nicht an zwei Aufgaben gleichzeitig arbeiten kann. Zum Beispiel werden „task(0, 2)“ und „task(2, 1)“ auf Maschine 1 verarbeitet. Da die Verarbeitungsdauer 2 bzw. 4 beträgt, ist eine der folgenden Optionen: Einschränkungen müssen Folgendes enthalten: <ph type="x-smartling-placeholder">
  </ph>
  • t_{0, 2} + 2 <= t_{2, 1} (wenn task(0, 2) geplant ist) vor task(2, 1)) oder
  • t_{2, 1} + 4 <= t_{0, 2} (wenn task(2, 1) geplant ist) vor dem task(0, 2)).

Ziel für das Problem

Das Ziel des Job-Shop-Problems besteht darin, makespan zu minimieren: Zeitspanne vom frühesten Startzeitpunkt der Jobs bis zum letzten Ende.

Variablen definieren

Der folgende Code definiert die Variablen in der Aufgabe.

}

Für jeden Job und jede Aufgabe verwendet das Programm die NewIntVar/new_int_var/newIntVar-Methode zum Erstellen der Variablen:

• start_var: Startzeit der Aufgabe.
• end_var: Ende der Aufgabe.

Die Obergrenze für start_var und end_var ist horizon, die Summe von Verarbeitungszeiten für alle Aufgaben in allen Jobs. horizon ist aus folgendem Grund groß genug, um alle Aufgaben auszuführen: wenn Sie die Aufgaben in nicht überlappenden Zeitintervallen planen (eine nicht optimale Lösung), beträgt die Gesamtlänge des Zeitplans genau horizon. Die Funktion Dauer der optimalen Lösung darf nicht länger als horizon sein.

Als Nächstes verwendet das Programm den NewIntervalVar/new_interval_var/newIntervalVar Methode zum Erstellen einer Intervallvariablen, deren Wert eine variable Zeit ist intervall – für die Task. Die Eingaben für diese Methode sind:

• Die Startzeit der Aufgabe.
• Die Länge des Zeitintervalls für die Aufgabe.
• Die Endzeit der Aufgabe.
• Der Name der Intervallvariable.

In jeder Lösung muss end_var minus start_var gleich duration sein.

Einschränkungen definieren

Der folgende Code definiert die Einschränkungen für das Problem.

Python

# Create and add disjunctive constraints.
for machine in all_machines:
    model.add_no_overlap(machine_to_intervals[machine])

# Precedences inside a job.
for job_id, job in enumerate(jobs_data):
    for task_id in range(len(job) - 1):
        model.add(
            all_tasks[job_id, task_id + 1].start >= all_tasks[job_id, task_id].end
        )

C++

// Create and add disjunctive constraints.
for (const auto machine : all_machines) {
  cp_model.AddNoOverlap(machine_to_intervals[machine]);
}

// Precedences inside a job.
for (int job_id = 0; job_id < jobs_data.size(); ++job_id) {
  const auto& job = jobs_data[job_id];
  for (int task_id = 0; task_id < job.size() - 1; ++task_id) {
    TaskID key = std::make_tuple(job_id, task_id);
    TaskID next_key = std::make_tuple(job_id, task_id + 1);
    cp_model.AddGreaterOrEqual(all_tasks[next_key].start, all_tasks[key].end);
  }
}

Java

// Create and add disjunctive constraints.
for (int machine : allMachines) {
  List<IntervalVar> list = machineToIntervals.get(machine);
  model.addNoOverlap(list);
}

// Precedences inside a job.
for (int jobID = 0; jobID < allJobs.size(); ++jobID) {
  List<Task> job = allJobs.get(jobID);
  for (int taskID = 0; taskID < job.size() - 1; ++taskID) {
    List<Integer> prevKey = Arrays.asList(jobID, taskID);
    List<Integer> nextKey = Arrays.asList(jobID, taskID + 1);
    model.addGreaterOrEqual(allTasks.get(nextKey).start, allTasks.get(prevKey).end);
  }
}

C#

// Create and add disjunctive constraints.
foreach (int machine in allMachines)
{
    model.AddNoOverlap(machineToIntervals[machine]);
}

// Precedences inside a job.
for (int jobID = 0; jobID < allJobs.Count(); ++jobID)
{
    var job = allJobs[jobID];
    for (int taskID = 0; taskID < job.Count() - 1; ++taskID)
    {
        var key = Tuple.Create(jobID, taskID);
        var nextKey = Tuple.Create(jobID, taskID + 1);
        model.Add(allTasks[nextKey].Item1 >= allTasks[key].Item2);
    }
}

Das Programm verwendet die Methode AddNoOverlap/add_no_overlap/addNoOverlap des Modells damit keine Überschneidungen entstehen, die verhindern, dass Aufgaben dass sich dieselbe Maschine überschneidet.

Als Nächstes fügt das Programm Einschränkungen der Priorität hinzu, die verhindern, aufeinanderfolgende Aufgaben für denselben Job, dass sich die Zeit nicht überschneidet. Für jeden Job und jede wird für jede Aufgabe im Job eine lineare Einschränkung hinzugefügt, um anzugeben, dass das Ende Zeitpunkt einer Aufgabe, der vor der Startzeit der nächsten Aufgabe im Job liegen soll.

Ziel definieren

Der folgende Code definiert das Ziel in der Aufgabe.

Python

# Makespan objective.
obj_var = model.new_int_var(0, horizon, "makespan")
model.add_max_equality(
    obj_var,
    [all_tasks[job_id, len(job) - 1].end for job_id, job in enumerate(jobs_data)],
)
model.minimize(obj_var)

C++

// Makespan objective.
IntVar obj_var = cp_model.NewIntVar({0, horizon}).WithName("makespan");

std::vector<IntVar> ends;
for (int job_id = 0; job_id < jobs_data.size(); ++job_id) {
  const auto& job = jobs_data[job_id];
  TaskID key = std::make_tuple(job_id, job.size() - 1);
  ends.push_back(all_tasks[key].end);
}
cp_model.AddMaxEquality(obj_var, ends);
cp_model.Minimize(obj_var);

Java

// Makespan objective.
IntVar objVar = model.newIntVar(0, horizon, "makespan");
List<IntVar> ends = new ArrayList<>();
for (int jobID = 0; jobID < allJobs.size(); ++jobID) {
  List<Task> job = allJobs.get(jobID);
  List<Integer> key = Arrays.asList(jobID, job.size() - 1);
  ends.add(allTasks.get(key).end);
}
model.addMaxEquality(objVar, ends);
model.minimize(objVar);

C#

// Makespan objective.
IntVar objVar = model.NewIntVar(0, horizon, "makespan");

List<IntVar> ends = new List<IntVar>();
for (int jobID = 0; jobID < allJobs.Count(); ++jobID)
{
    var job = allJobs[jobID];
    var key = Tuple.Create(jobID, job.Count() - 1);
    ends.Add(allTasks[key].Item2);
}
model.AddMaxEquality(objVar, ends);
model.Minimize(objVar);

Dieser Code erstellt eine Zielvariable und schränkt sie auf das Maximum der und das Ende aller Jobs.

Solver aufrufen

Mit dem folgenden Code wird der Rechner aufgerufen.

Python

solver = cp_model.CpSolver()
status = solver.solve(model)

C++

const CpSolverResponse response = Solve(cp_model.Build());

Java

CpSolver solver = new CpSolver();
CpSolverStatus status = solver.solve(model);

C#

CpSolver solver = new CpSolver();
CpSolverStatus status = solver.Solve(model);
Console.WriteLine($"Solve status: {status}");

Hier der optimale Zeitplan:

 Optimal Schedule Length: 11
Machine 0: job_0_0   job_1_0
           [0,3]     [3,5]
Machine 1: job_2_0   job_0_1   job_1_2
           [0,4]     [4,6]     [7,11]
Machine 2: job_1_1   job_0_2   job_2_1
           [5,6]     [6,8]     [8,11]

Eagle-eyed-Leser, die Maschine 1 untersuchen, fragen sich vielleicht, warum job_1_2 statt Zeit 6. Beide Lösungen sind gültig, aber denken Sie daran: Das Ziel das Minimieren der Macht. Durch das frühere Verschieben von job_1_2 wird die Makespan-Funktion nicht verringert. , sodass die beiden Lösungen aus der Perspektive des Lösers sind.
