    Abstract

    We consider the bicriteria single-machine scheduling problem of minimizing the number of tardy jobs and the cost of starting the machine at time -A. We show that we can find all Pareto optimal points by considering at most O( n2) values of A, where for a given A value, we use an SPT-based algorithm to find the optimal solution instead of Moore-Hodgson.
