With the continuous development of technology,traditional manual work has been becoming more and more automated.Most large or medium-sized companies have applied Enterprise Resource Planning(ERP)software into their bu...
In the competitive global marketplace,production scheduling plays a vital role in planning in manufacturing.Scheduling deals directly with the time to output products quickly and with a low production cost.This resear...
We consider the problem of two-machine cross-docking flow shop scheduling where each job on the second machine cannot be processed unless a job or a set of jobs have been completed on the first machine.The aim is to f...
This study investigates an energy-aware flow shop scheduling problem with a time-dependent learning effect. The relationship between the traditional and the proposed scheduling problem is shown and objective is to det...

To solve the blocking flow shop scheduling with maximum completion time(i.e. makespan) criterion,we proposed an Improved biogeography-based optimization algorithm(IBBO). The framework of basic BBO algorithm is used in...
Many researches discussing reduced energy consumption for environmental protection focus on machine efficiency or process redesign. To optimize the machine operation time can also save the energy, and these researches...
