چکیده
This paper introduces a hybrid metaheuristic, the Variable Neighborhood Particle Swarm Optimization (VNPSO), consisting of a combination of the Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) and Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO). The proposed VNPSO method is used for solving the multi-objective Flexible Job-shop Scheduling Problems (FJSP). The details of implementation for the multi-objective FJSP and the corresponding computational experiments are reported. The results indicate that the proposed algorithm is an efficient approach for the multi-objective FJSP, especially for large scale problems.

The job shop scheduling problem is one of the most arduous combinatorial optimization problems. Flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSP) is an important extension of the classical job shop scheduling problem, where the same operation could be processed on more than one machine. This paper proposed a new effective approach based on the hybridization of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) an...
متن کاملA Particle Swarm Optimization Approach to Joint Location and Scheduling Decisions in A Flexible Job Shop Environment
In traditional scheduling literature, it is generally assumed that the location of facilities are predetermined and fixed in advance. However, these decisions are interrelated and may impact each other significantly. Therefore finding a schedule and facility location has become an important problem as an extension of the well-known scheduling problems. In this research we consider joint decisio...

متن کاملA Multi-swarm Approach to Multi-objective Flexible Job-shop Scheduling Problems
Swarm Intelligence (SI) is an innovative distributed intelligent paradigm whereby the collective behaviors of unsophisticated individuals interacting locally with their environment cause coherent functional global patterns to emerge. In this paper, we model the scheduling problem for the multi-objective Flexible Job-shop Scheduling Problems (FJSP) and attempt to formulate and solve the problem ...
