Discrete bat algorithm for optimal problem of permutation flow shop scheduling.

ABSTRACT: A discrete bat algorithm (DBA) is proposed for optimal permutation flow shop scheduling problem (PFSP). Firstly, the discrete bat algorithm is constructed based on the idea of basic bat algorithm, which divide whole scheduling problem into many subscheduling problems and then NEH heuristic be introduced to solve subscheduling problem. Secondly, some subsequences are operated with certain probability in the pulse emission and loudness phases. An intensive virtual population neighborhood search is integrated into the discrete bat algorithm to further improve the performance. Finally, the experimental results show the suitability and efficiency of the present discrete bat algorithm for optimal permutation flow shop scheduling problem.

Dataset of metaheuristics for the flow shop scheduling problem with maintenance activities integrated.

Project description:This data article presents a flow shop scheduling problem in which machines are not available during the whole planning horizon and the periods of unavailability are due to random faults. The experimental dataset consists of two problems with different sizes. In the largest one, about 2400 problems were analysed and compared with two diffuse metaheuristics: Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Harmony Search (HS). In the smallest, about 600 problems were analysed comparing the solution obtained with an exhaustive algorithm with those obtained by means of GA and HS. This dataset represents a test-bed for further works, allowing a comparison between the solution quality and the computation time obtained with different optimization methods. The substantial computational effort spent to generate the dataset undoubtedly represents a significant asset for the scientific community.

A DNA algorithm for the job shop scheduling problem based on the Adleman-Lipton model.

Project description:A DNA (DeoxyriboNucleic Acid) algorithm is proposed to solve the job shop scheduling problem. An encoding scheme for the problem is developed and DNA computing operations are proposed for the algorithm. After an initial solution is constructed, all possible solutions are generated. DNA computing operations are then used to find an optimal schedule. The DNA algorithm is proved to have an O(n2) complexity and the length of the final strand of the optimal schedule is within appropriate range. Experiment with 58 benchmark instances show that the proposed DNA algorithm outperforms other comparative heuristics.

A global-local neighborhood search algorithm and tabu search for flexible job shop scheduling problem.

Project description:The Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem (FJSP) is a combinatorial problem that continues to be studied extensively due to its practical implications in manufacturing systems and emerging new variants, in order to model and optimize more complex situations that reflect the current needs of the industry better. This work presents a new metaheuristic algorithm called the global-local neighborhood search algorithm (GLNSA), in which the neighborhood concepts of a cellular automaton are used, so that a set of leading solutions called smart-cells generates and shares information that helps to optimize instances of the FJSP. The GLNSA algorithm is accompanied by a tabu search that implements a simplified version of the Nopt1 neighborhood defined in Mastrolilli & Gambardella (2000) to complement the optimization task. The experiments carried out show a satisfactory performance of the proposed algorithm, compared with other results published in recent algorithms, using four benchmark sets and 101 test problems.

Efficient bounding schemes for the two-center hybrid flow shop scheduling problem with removal times.

Project description:We focus on the two-center hybrid flow shop scheduling problem with identical parallel machines and removal times. The job removal time is the required duration to remove it from a machine after its processing. The objective is to minimize the maximum completion time (makespan). A heuristic and a lower bound are proposed for this NP-Hard problem. These procedures are based on the optimal solution of the parallel machine scheduling problem with release dates and delivery times. The heuristic is composed of two phases. The first one is a constructive phase in which an initial feasible solution is provided, while the second phase is an improvement one. Intensive computational experiments have been conducted to confirm the good performance of the proposed procedures.

Research on multi-agent genetic algorithm based on tabu search for the job shop scheduling problem.

Project description:The solution to the job shop scheduling problem (JSSP) is of great significance for improving resource utilization and production efficiency of enterprises. In this paper, in view of its non-deterministic polynomial properties, a multi-agent genetic algorithm based on tabu search (MAGATS) is proposed to solve JSSPs under makespan constraints. Firstly, a multi-agent genetic algorithm (MAGA) is proposed. During the process, a multi-agent grid environment is constructed based on characteristics of multi-agent systems and genetic algorithm (GA), and a corresponding neighbor interaction operator, a mutation operator based on neighborhood structure and a self-learning operator are designed. Then, combining tabu search algorithm with a MAGA, the algorithm MAGATS are presented. Finally, 43 benchmark instances are tested with the new algorithm. Compared with four other algorithms, the optimization performance of it is analyzed based on obtained test results. Effectiveness of the new algorithm is verified by analysis results.

Bi-Objective Flexible Job-Shop Scheduling Problem Considering Energy Consumption under Stochastic Processing Times.

Project description:This paper presents a novel method on the optimization of bi-objective Flexible Job-shop Scheduling Problem (FJSP) under stochastic processing times. The robust counterpart model and the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II) are used to solve the bi-objective FJSP with consideration of the completion time and the total energy consumption under stochastic processing times. The case study on GM Corporation verifies that the NSGA-II used in this paper is effective and has advantages to solve the proposed model comparing with HPSO and PSO+SA. The idea and method of the paper can be generalized widely in the manufacturing industry, because it can reduce the energy consumption of the energy-intensive manufacturing enterprise with less investment when the new approach is applied in existing systems.

Multi-population genetic algorithm with ER network for solving flexible job shop scheduling problems.

Project description:A genetic algorithm (GA) cannot always avoid premature convergence, and multi-population is usually used to overcome this limitation by dividing the population into several sub-populations (sub-population number) with the same number of individuals (sub-population size). In previous research, the questions of how a network structure composed of sub-populations affects the propagation rate of advantageous genes among sub-populations and how it affects the performance of GA have always been ignored. Therefore, we first propose a multi-population GA with an ER network (MPGA-ER). Then, by using the flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSP) as an example and considering the total individual number (TIN), we study how the sub-population number and size and the propagation rate of advantageous genes affect the performance of MPGA-ER, wherein the performance is evaluated by the average optimal value and success rate based on TIN. The simulation results indicate the following regarding the performance of MPGA-ER: (i) performance shows considerable improvement compared with that of traditional GA; (ii) for an increase in the sub-population number for a certain TIN, the performance first increases slowly, and then decreases rapidly; (iii) for an increase in the sub-population size for a certain TIN, the performance of MPGA-ER first increases rapidly and then tends to remain stable; and (iv) with an increase in the propagation rate of advantageous genes, the performance first increases rapidly and then decreases slowly. Finally, we use a parameter-optimized MPGA-ER to solve for more FJSP instances and demonstrate its effectiveness by comparing it with that of other algorithms proposed in other studies.

Minimizing the makespan and carbon emissions in the green flexible job shop scheduling problem with learning effects.

Project description:One of the most difficult challenges for modern manufacturing is reducing carbon emissions. This paper focuses on the green scheduling problem in a flexible job shop system, taking into account energy consumption and worker learning effects. With the objective of simultaneously minimizing the makespan and total carbon emissions, the green flexible job shop scheduling problem (GFJSP) is formulated as a mixed integer linear multiobjective optimization model. Then, the improved multiobjective sparrow search algorithm (IMOSSA) is developed to find the optimal solution. Finally, we conduct computational experiments, including a comparison between IMOSSA and the nondominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II), Jaya and the mixed integer linear programming (MILP) solver of CPLEX. The results demonstrate that IMOSSA has high precision, good convergence and excellent performance in solving the GFJSP in low-carbon manufacturing systems.

A Hybrid Genetic Algorithm for Nurse Scheduling Problem considering the Fatigue Factor.

Project description:Nowadays and due to the pandemic of COVID-19, nurses are working under the highest pressure benevolently all over the world. This urgent situation can cause more fatigue for nurses who are responsible for taking care of COVID-19 patients 24 hours a day. Therefore, nurse scheduling should be modified with respect to this new situation. The purpose of the present research is to propose a new mathematical model for Nurse Scheduling Problem (NSP) considering the fatigue factor. To solve the proposed model, a hybrid Genetic Algorithm (GA) has been developed to provide a nurse schedule for all three shifts of a day. To validate the proposed approach, a randomly generated problem has been solved. In addition, to show the applicability of the proposed approach in real situations, the model has been solved for a real case study, a department in one of the hospitals in Esfahan, Iran, where COVID-19 patients are hospitalized. Consequently, a nurse schedule for May has been provided applying the proposed model, and the results approve its superiority in comparison with the manual schedule that is currently used in the department. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first study in which the proposed model takes the fatigue of nurses into account and provides a schedule based on it.

A Discrete Fruit Fly Optimization Algorithm for the Traveling Salesman Problem.

Project description:The fruit fly optimization algorithm (FOA) is a newly developed bio-inspired algorithm. The continuous variant version of FOA has been proven to be a powerful evolutionary approach to determining the optima of a numerical function on a continuous definition domain. In this study, a discrete FOA (DFOA) is developed and applied to the traveling salesman problem (TSP), a common combinatorial problem. In the DFOA, the TSP tour is represented by an ordering of city indices, and the bio-inspired meta-heuristic search processes are executed with two elaborately designed main procedures: the smelling and tasting processes. In the smelling process, an effective crossover operator is used by the fruit fly group to search for the neighbors of the best-known swarm location. During the tasting process, an edge intersection elimination (EXE) operator is designed to improve the neighbors of the non-optimum food location in order to enhance the exploration performance of the DFOA. In addition, benchmark instances from the TSPLIB are classified in order to test the searching ability of the proposed algorithm. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the proposed DFOA is compared to that of other meta-heuristic algorithms. The results indicate that the proposed DFOA can be effectively used to solve TSPs, especially large-scale problems.
