Minimizing flowtime in a flowshop scheduling problem with a biased random-key genetic algorithm

In this paper, we advance the state of the art for solving the Permutation Flowshop Scheduling Problem with total flowtime minimization. For this purpose, we propose a Biased Random-Key Genetic Algorithm (BRKGA) introducing on it a new feature called …

Heuristics for a flowshop scheduling problem with stepwise job objective function

In this work, we introduce the Flowshop Scheduling Problem with Delivery Dates and Cumulative Payoffs. This problem is a variation of the flowshop scheduling problem with job release dates that maximizes the total payoff with a stepwise job objective …
