This paper reviews research on the total tardiness (TT) and total weighted tardiness (TWT) problems. Heuristic methods and optimizing techniques are surveyed for both types of problems in the single-machine environment. Complexity theory related to these problems is also discussed. Some extensions of the TT and TWT problems are given for multi-machine environments.
