چکیده

The Resource Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP) is a well-studied academic problem that has been shown to be well suited to optimization via Genetic Algorithms (GA). In this paper, a new method will be designed that would be able to solve RCPSP. This research area is very common in industry especially when a set of activities needs to be finished as soon as possible subject to two sets of constraints, precedence constraints and resource constraints. The presented algorithm in this paper is used to solve large scale RCPSP and improves solutions. Finally, for comparing, results are reported for the most famous classical problems that are taken from PSPLIB. A New Genetic Algorithm for the RCPSP in Large Scale

Genetic and Memetic Algorithms for Sequencing a New JIT Mixed-Model Assembly Line

This paper presents a new mathematical programming model for the bi-criteria mixed-model assembly line balancing problem in a just-in-time (JIT) production system. There is a set of criteria to judge sequences of the product mix in terms of the effective utilization of the system. The primary goal of this model is to minimize the setup cost and the stoppage assembly line cost, simultaneously. B...

An Evolutionary Algorithm Based on a Hybrid Multi-Attribute Decision Making Method for the Multi-Mode Multi-Skilled Resource-constrained Project Scheduling Problem

This paper addresses the multi-mode multi-skilled resource-constrained project scheduling problem. Activities of real world projects often require more than one skill to be accomplished. Besides, in many real-world situations, the resources are multi-skilled workforces. In presence of multi-skilled resources, it is required to determine the combination of workforces assigned to each activity. H...
