The objective of this paper is to develop the efficient heuristic method for solving the minimum makespan problem of the job shop scheduling. The proposed heuristic method is based on a constraint satisfaction problem technique and a improved randomizing search algorithm. In this paper, ILOG programming libraries are used to embody the job shop model, and a constraint satisfaction problem technique is developed for this model to generate the initial solution. Then, a improved randomizing search algorithm is employed to overcome the increased search time of constrained satisfaction problem technique on the increased problem size and to find a improved solution. Computational experiments on well known MT and LA problem instances show that this approach yields better results than the other procedures.
