Abstract
This study proposes an adaptive local search heuristic to solve a real-world large-scale parallel machine scheduling problem with release dates and setup times, aiming to minimize total tardiness. The complexity of the problem stems from the need to synchronize machine availability, job release dates, and setup durations, which are crucial for meeting production deadlines and ensuring operational efficiency. Traditional optimization approaches often struggle to deliver timely solutions for large-scale industrial applications. Our heuristic method effectively explores the search space to identify schedules that significantly reduce total tardiness while adhering to the constraints of the production system. The approach was tested using real production data, and the results indicate that the heuristic consistently generated high-quality solutions within short computational times. The approach proved viable and efficient, offering a practical tool for improving scheduling performance and minimizing total tardiness in industries with similar operational constraints.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
