Description for Evolutionary Search and the Job Shop
Paperback. Part of the "Production and Logistics" series, this book discusses the suitability of genetic algorithms for production scheduling, and presents an approach which produces results comparable with those of more tailored optimization techniques. Series: Production & Logistics Series. Num Pages: 153 pages, 67 black & white illustrations, 30 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: KJMV5; TBJ; TGP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 8. Weight in Grams: 260.
Production scheduling dictates highly constrained mathematical models with complex and often contradicting objectives. Evolutionary algorithms can be formulated almost independently of the detailed shaping of the problems under consideration. As one would expect, a weak formulation of the problem in the algorithm comes along with a quite inefficient search. This book discusses the suitability of genetic algorithms for production scheduling and presents an approach which produces results comparable with those of more tailored optimization techniques.
