Hybrid Evolutionary Strategy and Simulated Annealing Algorithms for Integrated Process Planning, Scheduling and Due-Date Assignment Problem

Although integrated process planning and scheduling (IPPS) problem is studied extensively as with due-date assignment (SWDDA) in the literature, there are only a few studies on integration of these three manufacturing functions which planning, scheduling, assignment. Since outputs upper stream effect downstream higher gives better global performance, it to integrate functions. In this study earliest (EDD) using hybrid evolutionary strategies (RS/ES) simulated annealing algorithms (RS/SA). Ordinary solutions (OS), random search (RS) solutions, (ES) (SA) compared each other ES SA, RS. According results, found best results obtained highest level. SA methods gave RS OS, RS/ES RS/SA techniques were promising techniques.
