Production Scheduling with Due Windows
Yu, Shun Chi
With related studies demonstrating that ant colony optimization algorithm (ACO), and particle swarm algorithm (PSO) are both effective and efficient means of solving scheduling problems, this study, develops a farness particle swarm optimization algorithm (FPSO) to solve reentrant two-stage multiprocessor flow shop scheduling problems in order to minimize earliness and tardiness, a novel effective ant colony optimization (EACO) algorithm to so...
