Instance data for "Scheduling Trucks on Factory Premises"

Instance data for the paper Wirth, M., &amp; Emde, S. (2018). Scheduling trucks on factory premises. <em>Computers &amp; Industrial Engineering</em>, <em>126</em>, 175-186. Every instance is in a separate text file, of which there are 54 in total (18 small, medium, and large instances, respectively). The data format is as follows. &lt;num&gt; is the running index of the instance. &lt;NumTrucks&gt; is the total number of trucks (jobs). &lt;NumDoors&gt; is the total number of dock doors (machines) on the factory premises. &lt;MaxDoors&gt; denotes the maximum number of doors to be visited per truck. &lt;FactoryLength&gt; denotes the size of the factory premises in meters (used to calculate the distances). &lt;Distribution&gt; is the type of probability distribution used for generating the processing and transfer times. &lt;Processing&gt; is a binary matrix signalling if a truck requires processing at a door: if and only if the entry in line i and column j is 1, truck j requires processing at door i. &lt;ProcessingTime&gt; is the processing time matrix: the entry in line i and column j is the processing time of truck j at door i. &lt;DoorDistance&gt; is the distance matrix between doors. The entrance / exit dummy door is the first line / column. &lt;ReleaseDate&gt; is the release date vector for the trucks. &lt;DueDate&gt; are the due dates of the trucks. &lt;Cost&gt; are the weights in the objective for each truck.
