Nonpermutation flow line scheduling by ant colony optimization

Abstract: A flow line is a conventional manufacturing system where all jobs must be processed on all machines with the same operation sequence. Line buffers allow nonpermutation flowshop scheduling and job sequences to be changed on different machines. A mixed-integer linear programming model for nonpermutation flowshop scheduling and the buffer requirement along with manufacturing implication is proposed. Ant colony optimization based heuristic is evaluated against Taillard's (1993) well-known flowshop benchmark instan… Show more

“…Inspired from the nature, new optimization techniques are devised and being investigated in various fields recently (Eby et al ., 1999). Among these techniques, some have proved to be drastically effective in engineering-related subjects such as GA (Su and Yan, 2015), artificial ant colony (Rossi and Lanzetta, 2013), SA (Brown and Cagan, 1997), and PSO (Badamchizadeh et al ., 2010).…”

“…Finally, our model could be extended to other shop scheduling problems (e.g. flow-shop and open-shop) since they can be represented by disjunctive graphs [41,42]. While the first advantage will be demonstrated in the experiments, we plan to further explore the latter two in the future.…”

“…In addition, CPT is a commonly used soil exploration survey in engineering applications because it is quick, economic, and could continuously obtain physical soil parameters (Eslami, 1997; Abu-Farsakh and Titi, 2004). In recent years, some researchers developed concepts of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) in different engineering applications, such as engineering mechanics, design of energy-saving buildings, automation, and construction (Coello and Aguirre, 2002; Nariman-Zadeh et al ., 2003; Hanna, 2007; Padmini et al ., 2008; Rossi and Lanzetta, 2013; Hu et al ., 2014; Zeng et al ., 2014; Kontovourkis et al ., 2015; Salido et al ., 2015; Adeniran and El-Ferik, 2017; Persson and Ölvander, 2017; Thimmisetty et al ., 2017; Al-Refaie et al ., 2018; Keles, 2018; Lin and Huang, 2018; Mirabi and Seddighi, 2018; Zimmermann et al ., 2018). In recent years, applications of AI models have become widespread through civil engineering projects (e.g., Armaghani et al ., 2017, 2018; Koopialipoor et al ., 2018).…”
