Abstract :
The problem of total weighted completion time for single batching machine is an open problem until now. Accordingly, heuristics is very useful to the problem. We construct a nonlinear mathematical model for the problem with unbounded batching machine. A dynamic programming is also carried for the problem, which is proved to be at most 2 times of the optimal solution later. With an example, we show that the bound is tight.
