In the flowshop scheduling literature, the insertion-based neighborhood search method is
often considered to obtain high-quality solutions. It will lead to expending extensive …

We review the literature about shop scheduling problems in manufacturing systems,
revealing the concepts and methodologies that most impact the usage of scheduling theory …

This paper considers an energy-efficient no-wait permutation flow shop scheduling problem
to minimize makespan and total energy consumption, simultaneously. The processing …

The no-idle flowshop has attracted enormous attention owing to its widespread application
in the manufacturing industry domain. In this paper, a hybrid discrete water wave …

The distributed assembly blocking flow-shop scheduling problem (DABFSP), which is a
promising area in modern supply chains and manufacturing systems, has attracted great …

Nowadays, many manufacturing and service industries prefer to share resources such as
facilities and workers to cooperatively perform tasks, which can efficiently improve resource …

Flow shop scheduling is a type of scheduling where sequence follows for each job on a set
of machines for processing. In practice, jobs in flow shops can arrive at irregular times, and …

Integrated optimization of production scheduling and maintenance planning has received
tremendous attention from academia and industry, but the impacts of variable processing …

This study investigates the no-wait flow shop scheduling problem and proposes a hybrid
(HES-IG) algorithm that utilizes makespan as the objective function. To address the …
