This paper considers a bicriterion scheduling problem in which a linear combination of two objective functions is considered. The weights are used to represent the relative importance of the two criteria, i.e., squared flowtime and maximum tardiness. A branch-and-bound solution procedure is deisgned for the problem, and a numerical example is provided to illustrate the procedure.
