In this paper, we focus on heuristic approaches for solving the deterministic job shop scheduling problem. More specifically, a new priority dispatch rule and hybrid rollout algorithms are developed for approaching the problem under consideration. The proposed solution algorithms are tested on a set of instances taken from the literature and compared with other methods.
