Improving Local Search for the Fuzzy Job Shop Using a Lower Bound
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the fuzzy job shop problem, where uncertain durations are modelled as fuzzy numbers and the objective is to minimise the expected makespan. A recent local search method from the literature has proved to be very competitive when used in combination with a genetic algorithm, but at the expense of a high computational cost. Our aim is to improve its efficiency with an alternative rescheduling algorithm and a makespan lower bound to prune non-improving neighbours. The experimental results illustrate the success of our proposals in reducing both CPU time and number of evaluated neighbours.

Improved Local Search for Job Shop Scheduling with uncertain Durations
This paper is concerned with local search methods to solve job shop scheduling problems with uncertain durations modelled as fuzzy numbers. Based on a neighbourhood structure from the literature, a reduced set of moves and the consequent structure are defined. Theoretical results show that the proposed neighbourhood contains all the improving solutions from the original neighbourhood and provid...
متن کاملA New Multi-objective Job Shop Scheduling with Setup Times Using a Hybrid Genetic Algorithm
This paper presents a new multi objective job shop scheduling with sequence-dependent setup times. The objectives are to minimize the makespan and sum of the earliness and tardiness of jobs in a time window. A mixed integer programming model is developed for the given problem that belongs to NP-hard class. In this case, traditional approaches cannot reach to an optimal solution in a reasonable...
متن کاملOptimality of the flexible job shop scheduling system based on Gravitational Search Algorithm
The Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem (FJSP) is one of the most general and difficult of all traditional scheduling problems. The Flexible Job Shop Problem (FJSP) is an extension of the classical job shop scheduling problem which allows an operation to be processed by any machine from a given set. The problem is to assign each operation to a machine and to order the operations on the machine...

متن کاملSolving the Job Shop Problem using Taboo Search with Fuzzy Reasoning
In the last decade, various approximation approaches, such as dispatching rules, shifting bottleneck heuristic and local search methods, are proposed for the job shop scheduling problem. As one of the local search methods, taboo search provides a promising alternative for the job shop scheduling problem; however, it has to be tailored each time with respect to parameters for every instance in o...
