1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Sequence-dependent setup times and precedence delays occur frequently in various production environments. This study investigates the single machine scheduling problem with setup times and precedence delays that occur in an amplifier assembly company. This study proposes a novel mixed-integer linear programming model and a lean iterated greedy algorithm to minimize the makespan for this problem. Based on the property of delayed precedence constraints, the lean iterated greedy (LIG) algorithm uses a simple but effective lean construction mechanism that can discard infeasible solutions to reduce the waste of unnecessary searches and quickly converge to the (near) global optimum. The computational results show that LIG significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art algorithm in terms of solution quality and computational efficiency. This study mainly contributes to providing a simple, effective, and efficient algorithm that can facilitate industrial applications and serve as a new benchmark approach for future research.
