چکیده

The Job Shop Scheduling Problem (JSSP) is a well known practical planning problem in the manufacturing sector. We have considered the JSSP with an objective of minimizing makespan. In this paper, we develop a three-stage hybrid approach called JSFMA to solve the JSSP. In JSFMA, considering a method similar to Shuffled Frog Leaping algorithm we divide the population in several sub populations and then solve the problem using a Memetic algorithm. The proposed approach have been compared with other algorithms for the Job Shop Scheduling and evaluated with satisfactory results on a set of the JSSP instances derived from classical Job Shop Scheduling benchmarks. We have solved 20 benchmark problems from Lawrence’s datasets and compared the results obtained with the results of the algorithms established in the literature. The experimental results show that JSFMA could gain the best known makespan in 17 out of 20 problems.

An algorithm for multi-objective job shop scheduling problem

Scheduling for job shop is very important in both fields of production management and combinatorial op-timization. However, it is quite difficult to achieve an optimal solution to this problem with traditional opti-mization approaches owing to the high computational complexity. The combination of several optimization criteria induces additional complexity and new problems. In this paper, we pro...

An integrated approach for scheduling flexible job-shop using teaching–learning-based optimization method

In this paper, teaching–learning-based optimization (TLBO) is proposed to solve flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSP) based on the integrated approach with an objective to minimize makespan. An FJSP is an extension of basic job-shop scheduling problem. There are two sub problems in FJSP. They are routing problem and sequencing problem. If both the sub problems are solved simultaneously, t...
