Minimizing the number of tardy jobs with stochastically-ordered processing times

We consider the single-machine sequencing model with stochastic processing times and the problem of minimizing the number of stochastically tardy jobs. In general, this problem is NP-hard. Recently, however, van den Akker and Hoogeveen found some special cases that could be solved in polynomial time. We generalize their findings by providing a polynomial time solution for any stochastically ordered processing times.
