In this paper, we have studied a multiobjective hybrid flowshop scheduling problem where n independent jobs should be executed in a hybrid assembly line. The aim of our work is to optimize the makespan and the total tardiness of the whole production. A simulation based optimization algorithm is proposed here to solve this problem. It is a combination of the simulation software ARENA and the FLC...

Energy conservation, emission reduction, and green low carbon are of great significance to sustainable development, also the theme transformation upgrading manufacturing industry. This paper concentrates on studying energy-efficient hybrid flowshop scheduling problem with consistent sublots (HFSP_ECS) objective minimizing energy consumption. To solve problem, HFSP_ECS is decomposed by idea “div...

The context of the problem tackled in this paper is a computer system composed by a single server and two identical parallel machines. The processing times on the server are assumed to be unary and the objective is to minimize the total completion time. The papers dealing with scheduling problems with a server generally consider that the setup activities require simultaneously the server and th...

The paper addresses the problem of scheduling in the two-stage flowshop with parallel unrelated machines and renewable resource constraints. The objective is minimization of makespan. The problem is NP-hard. Fast heuristic algorithms using list scheduling and greedy strategies are proposed. For evaluation of the performance of the algorithms computational experiments are performed on randomly g...
