Abstract

We consider the problem of minimizing the weighted number of tardy jobs on a single machine where each job is also subject to a deadline that cannot be violated. We propose an exact method based on a compact integer linear programming formulation of the problem and an effective reduction procedure that allows to solve to optimality instances with up to 30,000 jobs in size, and up to 50,000 jobs in size for the special deadline-free case.
