چکیده
We address a complex scheduling problem in the wood panel industry with the objective of minimizing a quadratic function of job tardiness. The proposed solution strategy, which is based on an effective genetic algorithm, has been coded and implemented within a major north african compagny leader in the wood panel manufacturing. Experimental results indicate significant decrease of delivery times.

An Effective Genetic Algorithm for a Complex Real-World Scheduling Problem
We address a complex scheduling problem arising in the wood panel industry with the objective of minimizing a quadratic function of job tardiness. The proposed solution strategy, which is based on an effective genetic algorithm, has been coded and implemented within a major Tunisian company, leader in the wood panel manufacturing. Preliminary experimental results indicate significant decrease o...
متن کاملSingle-machine scheduling considering carryover sequence-dependent setup time, and earliness and tardiness penalties of production
Production scheduling is one of the very important problems that industry and production are confronted with it. Production scheduling is often planned in the industrial environments while productivity in production can improve significantly the expansion of simultaneous optimization of the scheduling plan. Production scheduling and production are two areas that have attracted much attention in...
متن کاملَA Multi-objective simulated annealing algorithm to solving flexible no-wait flowshop scheduling problems with transportation times
This paper deals with a bi-objective hybrid no-wait flowshop scheduling problem minimizing the makespan and total weighted tardiness, in which we consider transportation times between stages. Obtaining an optimal solution for this type of complex, large-sized problem in reasonable computational time by using traditional approaches and optimization tools is extremely difficult. This paper presen...
متن کاملA Basic Period Approach for Solving the Economic Lot and Delivery Scheduling in Flexible Flow Lines
In this paper, the problem of lot sizing, scheduling and delivery of several items in a two-stage supply chain over a finite planning horizon is studied. Single supplier via a flexible flow line production system (FFL), produces several items and delivers them directly to an assembly facility. Based on basic period (BP) strategy, a new mixed zero-one nonlinear programming model has been develop...
متن کاملA heuristic approach for multi-stage sequence-dependent group scheduling problems
We present several heuristic algorithms based on tabu search for solving the multi-stage sequence-dependent group scheduling (SDGS) problem by considering minimization of makespan as the criterion. As the problem is recognized to be strongly NP-hard, several meta (tabu) search-based solution algorithms are developed to efficiently solve industry-size problem instances. Also, two different initi...
