  text: "Production  scheduling  has attracted  the  interest  of  production  economics
    \ communities  for  decades,  \r\nbut there is still  a  gap between academic
    research, real -world problems, operations research and  simulation.  Genetic
    \ Algorithms  (GA) represent a technique that has already been applied to a variety
    of combinatorial problems. \r\nSimulation can be used to find a solution to problems
    through repetitive simulation runs or to prove a solution \r\ncomputed by an optimization
    algorithm. We will explain the  application of two special GAs for job -shop and
    resource-\r\nconstrained  project scheduling  problems trying  to bridge the gap
    between problem  solving  by  algorithm  \r\nand by simulation. Possible goals
    for scheduling  problems are to minimize the makespan of a production program
    or to increase the due -date reliability of jobs or possibly any goal which can
    be described in a mathematical expression. The approach focuses on integrating
    a GA into a commercial software product and verifying the results with simulation."
