Optimization of Production Scheduling using Multi-Tasking by Multi-Population Genetic Algorithm
Abstract: Production scheduling is an important activity for manufacturing and engineering, where it can have a major impact on the productivity of a production system. Traditional in-house manufacturing involves production machines with dedicated operators. Here, multitasking technique is used to optimize the production scheduling problem. In parallel machine scheduling, there are n jobs and m machines and each job needs to be executed on one of the machines during a fixed …
