A HYBRID GENETIC ALGORITHM FOR A BI-OBJECTIVE SCHEDULING PROBLEM IN A FLEXIBLE MANUFACTURING CELL
This paper considers a bi-objective scheduling problem in a flexible manufacturing cell (FMC) which minimizes the maximum completion time (i.e., makespan) and maximum tardiness simultaneously. A new mathematical model is considered to reflect all aspect of the manufacturing cell. This type of scheduling problem is known to be NP-hard. To cope with the complexity of such a hard problem, a genet...
متن کاملScheduling of flexible manufacturing systems using genetic algorithm: A heuristic approach
Scheduling of production in Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMSs) has been extensively investigated over the past years and it continues to attract the interest of both academic researchers and practitioners. The generation of new and modified production schedules is becoming a necessity in today’s complex manufacturing environment. Genetic algorithms are used in this paper to obtain an initial...
متن کاملImproving a Flexible Manufacturing Scheduling using Genetic Algorithm
A Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) is designed to produce a variety of products, utilizing a set of resources like work stations, robots etc., interlinked by certain means of transport. The prime characteristic of an FMS is that the overall system is under the computer control to realize these essential improvements in a firm; it imposes many challenging problems for planning, scheduling, mo...
متن کاملRole of batch size in scheduling optimization of flexible manufacturing system using genetic algorithm
Flexible manufacturing system (FMS) readily addresses the dynamic needs of the customers in terms of variety and quality. At present, there is a need to produce a wide range of quality products in limited time span. On-time delivery of customers’ orders is critical in make-to-order (MTO) manufacturing systems. The completion time of the orders depends on several factors including arrival rate, ...
متن کاملGenetic Algorithms for Solving Scheduling Problems in Flexible Manufacturing Cells
In this paper, scheduling problems in Flexible Manufacturing Cells (FMC) are studied. The scheduling objective is to minimize the makespan. We used a genetic algorithm (GA) for solving the optimization scheduling problem. We have developed one FMC with industrial characteristics with the objective of studying scheduling problems in these types of manufacturing systems (single machine scheduling...
