This paper proposes a novel, multi-objective integer programming model for an open-shop scheduling problem (OSSP). Three objectives are to minimize the makespan, total job tardiness and earliness, and total jobs setup cost. Due the complexity to solve such a hard problem, we develop a meta-heuristic algorithm based on multi-objective scatter search (MOSS), and a number of test problems are solved by this proposed algorithm. Finally, to prove its efficiency, the related results are compared with the results obtained by the well-known multi-objective evolutionary algorithm, called NSGA-II. The results confirm the efficiency and the effectiveness of our proposed MOSS to provide good solutions, especially for medium and large-sized problems
Keywords: Open shop scheduling problems, Tardiness and earliness time, Makespan, Setup cost, NSGA-II, Multi-objective scatter search
