A spring-embedding approach for the facility layout problem
The facility layout problem is concerned with finding the most efficient arrangement of a given number of departments with unequal area requirements within a facility. The facility layout problem is a hard problem, and therefore, exact solution methods are only feasible for small or greatly restricted problems. In this paper, we propose a spring-embedding approach that unlike previous approache...
متن کاملA polyhedral approach to the single row facility layout problem
The Single Row Facility Layout Problem (SRFLP) is the NP -hard problem of arranging facilities on a line, while minimizing a weighted sum of the distances between facility pairs. In this paper, a detailed polyhedral study of the SRFLP is performed, and several huge classes of valid and facet-inducing inequalities are derived. Some separation heuristics are presented, along with a primal heurist...
متن کاملA distance assignment approach to the facility layout problem
The facility layout problem has generally been formulated as a quadratic assignment problem, where the interacting facilities are assigned to the various sites. In this paper a different approach, based on assigning distances between pairs of sites to pairs of facilities, is taken. A network formulation and analysis of this problem is provided. An algorithm, composed of three phases, is develop...
متن کاملStochastic Facility Layout Planning Problem: A Metaheuristic and Case Study
Facility layout is one of the most important Operations Management problems due to its direct impact on the financial performance of both private and public firms. Facility layout problem (FLP) with stochastic parameters, unequal area facilities, and grid system modeling is named GSUA-STFLP. This problem has not been worked in the literature so that to solve GSUA-STFLP is our main contribution....
متن کاملA Hybrid Simulated Annealing algorithm for Single Row Facility Layout Problem
This article addresses a single row facility layout problem where the objective is to optimize the arrangement of some rectangular facilities with different dimensions on a line. Regarding the NP-Hard nature of the considered problem, a hybrid meta-heuristic algorithm based on simulated annealing has been proposed to obtain a near optimal solution. A number of test problems are randomly generat...
