The problem is identified as 1 ││ Pr <sub>max </sub>. Aim of this study is to develop a profit based scheduling model using agent-based architecture in order to increase profitability of a single machine manufacturing systems. All objective functions in the literature are based on manufacturing cost, this study shows a new profit based approach to solve single machine scheduling problems. Model is simulated on the hypothetical data and simulation results show that performance of the proposed model is highly acceptable. </p>}, number={1}
