Abstract: We present a new multiple-model description and generalised algorithm of ship-building wharf scheduling. This description is represented as a special case of the job-shop-scheduling problem with dynamically distributed jobs, resources, flows, structures. The approach is based on a natural dynamic decomposition of the problem and its solution with the help of a modified form of continuous maximum principle coupled with combinatorial optimisation.

Keywords: ship-building wharf; integrated modelling; natural dynamic decomposition; maximum principle; job-shop scheduling; optimal control; combinatorial optimisation.
