Popis: In this paper, we study the problem of unrelated parallel machine scheduling with controllable processing times and deteriorating maintenance activity. The jobs are nonresumable. The processing time of each job is a linear function of the amount of a continuously divisible resource allocated to the job. During the planning horizon, there is at most one maintenance activity scheduled on each machine. Additionally, if the starting time of maintenance activity is delayed, the length of the maintenance activity required to perform will increase. Considering the total completion times of all jobs, the impact of maintenance activity in the form of the variation in machine load and the amounts of compression, we need to determine the job sequence on each machine, the location of maintenance activities and processing time compression of each job simultaneously. Accordingly, a polynomial time solution to the problem is provided.
