The dynamic single row facility layout problem (DSRFLP) is defined as the of arranging facilities along a straight line during multi-period planning horizon with objective minimizing sum material handling and rearrangement costs. cost products flow costs center-to-center distances between facilities. In this paper, we focus on metaheuristic algorithms for problem. main contributions paper are t...

LayOPTTM is an innovative facilities layout analysis and optimization software package which can be used by layout planners and engineers in the optimal solution of single and multiple floor facility layout problems. LayOPT is ideal for the re-design of the overall layout for an existing facility or the development of a block layout for a new building. It can be applied to manufacturing, wareho...

Facility Layout Problem (FLP) is logic based combinatorial optimization problem. It is a meta-heuristic solution approach that gained significant attention to obtained optimal facility layout. This paper examines the convergence analysis by changing the crossover and mutation probability in an optimal facility layout. This algorithm is based on appropriate techniques that include multipoint swa...

This paper deals with dynamic facility layout problem (DFLP) in a plant which is concerned determining the best position of machines during multi-period planning horizon. The material handling costs and rearrangement (MRC) are used to determine layout. In addition positions machines, details transportation such as type transporters sequence operations have direct effect on (MHC). Therefore, it ...

in this paper, a mixed-integer linearized programming (minlp) model is presented to design a group layout (gl) of a cellular manufacturing system (cms) in a dynamic environment with considering production planning (pp) decisions. this model incorporates with an extensive coverage of important manufacturing features used in the design of cmss. there are also some features that make the presented...
