• Rescheduling in production planning means to schedule the sequenced jobs again together with a set of new arrived jobs so as to generate a new feasible schedule, which creates disruptions to any job between the original and adjusted position. In this paper, we study rescheduling problems with learning effect under disruption constraints to minimize several classical objectives, where learning effect means that the workers gain experience during the process of operation and make the actual processing time of jobs shorter than their normal processing time. The objectives are to find optimal sequences to minimize the makespan and the total completion time under a limit of the disruptions from the original schedule. For the considered objectives under a single disruption constraint or a disruption cost constraint, we propose polynomial-time algorithms and pseudo-polynomial time algorithms, respectively.
