job shop scheduling problem has significant importance in many researchingfields such as production management and programming and also combinedoptimizing. job shop scheduling problem includes two sub-problems: machineassignment and sequence operation performing. in this paper combination ofparticle swarm optimization algorithm (pso) and gravitational search algorithm(gsa) have been presented f...

— Flexible Job Shop scheduling problem (FJSSP) is an important scheduling problem which has received considerable importance in the manufacturing domain. In this paper a genetic algorithm (GA) based scheduler is presented for flexible job shop problem to minimise makespan. The proposed approach implements a domain independent GA to solve this important class of problem. The scheduler is impleme...

Scheduling is an important process widely used in manufacturing, production, management, computer science, and so on. Appropriate scheduling can reduce material handling costs and time. Finding good schedules for given sets of jobs can thus help factory supervisors effectively control job flows and provide solutions for job sequencing. In simple flow shop problems, each machine operation center...

Scheduling is an important process widely used in manufacturing, production, management, computer science, and so on. Appropriate scheduling not only reduces manufacturing costs but also reduces possibilities for violating due dates. Finding good schedules for given sets of jobs can thus help factory supervisors effectively control job flows and provide solutions for job sequencing. In simple f...

Research on the Flexible Job Shop Scheduling (FJSP) problem in manufacturing process of aircraft engines has been carried out. It is found that there are real requirements such as order mandatory nodes and equipment selection current job scheduling process. Order node means some important orders must be delivered time at a certain point time, which often affects quality workshop results. In add...

This work studies the performance of two Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) models to solve scheduling problems in a flexible job shop environment with recirculation and assembly using a due-date-based objective function. The models convey different approaches both in the modelling of time (discrete and continuous approaches) as well as in the assignment of jobs to machines. The comparison...

The problem of efficiently scheduling production jobs on several machines is an important consideration when attempting to make effective use of a multimachines system such as a flexible job shop scheduling production system (FJSP). In most of its practical formulations, the FJSP is known to be NP-hard [8][9], so exact solution methods are unfeasible for most problem instances and heuristic app...
