Unlike the full optimization of LR problems in traditional LR approaches, the machine capacity relaxation is optimized asymptotically, while the precedence relaxation is optimized approximately due to the NP-hard nature of its LR problem. Because the standard subgradient algorithm(SSA) cannot solve the Lagrangian dual(LD) problem within the partial optimization of LR problem, an effective deflected-conditional approximate subgradient level algorithm(DCASLA) was developed, named as Lagrangian relaxation level approach. The efficiency of the DCASLA is enhanced by a deflected-conditional epsilon-subgradient to weaken the possible zigzagging phenomena. Computational results and comparisons show that the proposed methods improve significantly the efficiency of the LR approach and the DCASLA adopting capacity relaxation strategy performs best among eight methods in terms of solution quality and running time.展开更多
