An energy-efficient single machine scheduling with release dates and sequence-dependent setup times
(GECCO 2018 Companion - Proceedings of the 2018 Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference Companion, 2018)
This study considers single machine scheduling with the machine operating at varying speed levels for different jobs with release dates and sequence-dependent setup times, in order to examine the trade-off between makespan ...
Iterated greedy algorithms for the hybrid flowshop scheduling with total flow time minimization
(GECCO 2018 - Proceedings of the 2018 Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference, 2018)
1 The hybrid flosshop scheduling problem (HFSP) has been extensively studied in the literature, due to its complexity and real-life applicability. Various exact and heuristic algorithms have been developed for the HFSP, ...
Variable block insertion heuristic for the quadratic assignment problem
(2017 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation, CEC 2017 - Proceedings, 2017)
The aim of this paper is to apply the variable block insertion heuristic (VBIH) algorithm recently proposed in the literature for solving the quadratic assignment problem (QAP). The VBIH algorithm is concerned with making ...
Design of multi-product multi-period two-echelon supply chain network to minimize bullwhip effect through differential evolution
(2017 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation, CEC 2017 - Proceedings, 2017)
A supply chain network consists of facilities located in dispersed geographical locations. This network structure can be optimized to minimize total cost or total inventory by deciding the order quantities and distribution ...
A variable block insertion heuristic for permutation flowshops with makespan criterion
(2017 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation, CEC 2017 - Proceedings, 2017)
This paper proposes a populated variable block insertion heuristic (PVBIH) algorithm for solving the permutation flowshop scheduling problem with the makespan criterion. The PVBIH algorithm starts with a minimum block size ...
