We study single machine batch scheduling with release times. Our goal is to minimize the sum of weighted flow times (or completion times) and delivery costs. Since the problem is strongly -hard even with no delivery cost and identical weights for all jobs, an approximation algorithm is presented for the problem with identical weights. This uses the polynomial time solution we give...
