Some efficient heuristic methods for the flow shop sequencing problem
نویسنده
چکیده
We compare in this paper the best heuristic methods known up to now to solve the flow shop sequencing problem and we improve the complexity of the best one. Next, we apply to this problem taboo search, a new technique to solve combinatorial optimization problems, and we report computational experiments. Finally a parallel taboo search algorithm is presented and experimental results show that this heuristics allows very good speed-up.

A Fuzzy Algorithm for the m-Machine, n-Job Flow Shop Sequencing Problem
Flow shop sequencing problem is included in NP-hard problems and a number of heuristic methods have been developed to solve it. Most of these methods are offered for the crisp processing time. However fuzzy algorithm is appropriate for the problems with fuzzy processing time. This paper presents a method in which an algorithm is used to minimize make span of flow shop with fuzzy processing time...

متن کاملNet Present Value of Cash Flows in Single Machine and Flow Shop Scheduling Problems
While a great portion of the scheduling literature focuses on time-based criteria, the most important goal of management is maximizing the profitability of the firm. In this paper, the net preset value criterion is studied taking account of linear time-dependent cash flows in single machine and flow shop scheduling problems. First, a heuristic method is presented for the single machine scheduli...

متن کاملAn Iterated Greedy Algorithm for Solving the Blocking Flow Shop Scheduling Problem with Total Flow Time Criteria
In this paper, we propose an iterated greedy algorithm for solving the blocking flow shop scheduling problem with total flow time minimization objective. The steps of this algorithm are designed very efficient. For generating an initial solution, we develop an efficient constructive heuristic by modifying the best known NEH algorithm. Effectiveness of the proposed iterated greedy algorithm is t...
