Grouping technology and a hybrid genetic algorithm‐desirability function approach for optimum design of cellular manufacturing systems

Abstract Cell formation and machine layout in cellular manufacturing systems (CMs) design are considered as a crucial, yet hard and complex decision process. Owing to the nondeterministic polynomial time (NP) and combinatorial class of this problem, this paper presents an innovative heuristic approa...
