چکیده

This study is intended to examine the issue regarding the integration of assembly operations and machine layouts. For this issue, we consider a scenario of multiple orders and therefore build up an optimized mathematical model of synchronous planning. In the study, we develop an optimization mathematical model that uses a genetic algorithm (GA) for finding solutions and identify the most proper parameter value that best fit the GA by means of the experimental design. Ultimately, we use a case for a methodological application and the result shows that the GA may effectively integrate assembly operations and machine layouts for finding solutions.

Particle swarm optimization for minimizing total earliness/tardiness costs of two-stage assembly flowshop scheduling problem in a batched delivery system

This paper considers a two-stage assembly flow shop scheduling problem. When all parts of each product are completed in the first stage, they are assembled into a final product on an assembly machine in the second stage. In order to reduce the delivery cost, completed products can be held until completion of some other products to be delivered in a same batch. The proposed problem addresses sch...
