Three is easy, two is hard: open shop sum-batch scheduling problem refined

Abstract

For the two-machine open shop sum-batch problem to minimize the makespan an optimal schedule is known to contain
one, two or three batches on each machine, and finding a two-batch optimal schedule is NP-hard. We adapt the open shop
algorithm by de Werra for finding a three-batch optimal schedule in linear time.
