Scheduling theory is an important branch of operations research.
Problems studied within the framework of that theory have numerous
applications in various fields of human activity. As an independent
discipline scheduling theory appeared in the middle of the fifties,
and has attracted the attention of researchers in many countries.
In the Soviet Union, research in this direction has been mainly
related to production scheduling, especially to the development of
automated systems for production control. In 1975 Nauka ("Science")
Publishers, Moscow, issued two books providing systematic
descriptions of scheduling theory. The first one was the Russian
translation of the classical book Theory of Scheduling by American
mathematicians R. W. Conway, W. L. Maxwell and L. W. Miller. The
other one was the book Introduction to Scheduling Theory by Soviet
mathematicians V. S. Tanaev and V. V. Shkurba. These books well
complement each other. Both. books well represent major results
known by that time, contain an exhaustive bibliography on the
subject. Thus, the books, as well as the Russian translation of
Computer and Job-Shop Scheduling Theory edited by E. G. Coffman,
Jr., (Nauka, 1984) have contributed to the development of
scheduling theory in the Soviet Union. Many different models, the
large number of new results make it difficult for the researchers
who work in related fields to follow the fast development of
scheduling theory and to master new methods and approaches quickly.
