We study a single-machine scheduling problem with periodic maintenance activity under two maintenance stratagems. Although the scheduling problem with single or periodic maintenance and nonresumable jobs has been well studied, most of past studies considered only one maintenance stratagem. This research deals with a single-machine scheduling problem where the machine should be stopped for maintenance after a fixed periodic interval (
