From the supplier: The optimal allocation of dynamic and static jobs for service or production systems with multiple identical servers was investigated. To this end, a simulation framework that takes into consideration the optimal scheduling of job arrivals to a fixed number of time periods to reduce the total facility idling and job waiting costs was proposed. Numerical results showed that the optimal schedules may have less number of jobs than that of some other schedules, resulting in underallocation of the scheduling system over the entire scheduling horizon.
