An Improved Genetic-Simulated Annealing Algorithm Based on a Hormone Modulation Mechanism for a Flexible Flow-Shop Scheduling Problem
A flexible flow-shop scheduling (FFS) with nonidentical parallel machines for minimizing the maximum completion time or makespan is a well-known combinational problem. Since the problem is known to be strongly NP-hard, optimization can either be the subject of optimization approaches or be implement...
