Abstract: Aiming at the single-machine inverse scheduling problem with due-dates(SISPD), a mathematical model with the minimal adjustment of system as a target is constructed. Using complementary properties, three hybrid algorithms combining genetic algorithm with variable neighborhood search algorithm are proposed by using serial, parallel and embedded structure. In the algorithm, a double scheduling method which combines heuristic non-optimal scheduling method with random initial population and local initial population is designed to construct inverse scheduling mechanism. Then, based on the features of problem and encoding, four neighborhood structures are put forward to improve the local search ability by changing the neighborhood structure. Finally, the proposed algorithms are used to solve numerical instances. The computational results show that the proposed method could solve SISPD effectively.
