In this paper a hybrid genetic and harmony search algorithm is proposed to find the possible best sequence of operation solutions for hybrid flow shop scheduling problems. In this work the problem is considered with respect to the objective of minimization of makespan. Hybrid flow shop scheduling problem is considered for the sequencing of jobs in a hybrid flow shop with two or more identical m...

proper scheduling of tasks leads to optimum using of time and resources, inorder to obtaining best result. one of the most important and complicatedscheduling problems is open shop scheduling problem. there are n jobs in openshop scheduling problem which should be processed by m machines. purpose ofscheduling open shop problem is attaining to a suitable order of processing jobs byspecified mach...

The two-stage hybrid flow shop problem under setup times is addressed in this paper. This NP-Hard. on the other hand, studied modeling different real-life applications especially manufacturing and high performance-computing. Tackling kind of requires development adapted algorithms. In context, a metaheuristic using genetic algorithm three heuristics are proposed These approximate solutions opti...
