Abstract
Distributed energy-efficient hybrid flow shop scheduling problem (DEHFSP) with batch processing machines (BPMs) is rarely considered, let alone DEHFSP with BPMs and uncertainty. In this study, a fuzzy DEHFSP with BPMs at a middle stage and no precedence between some stages is presented, and a dynamic artificial bee colony (DABC) is proposed to simultaneously optimize the total agreement index, fuzzy makespan, and fuzzy total energy consumption. To produce high quality solutions, Metropolis criterion is used, dynamic employed bee phase based on neighborhood structure dynamic selection is implemented, and group-based onlooker bee phase with bidirectional communication is given. Migration operator is also adopted to replace scout bee phase. Extensive experiments are conducted, and the optimal combination of key parameters for DABC is decided by the Taguchi method. Comparative results and statistical analysis show that new strategies of DABC are effective, and DABC is highly competitive in solving the considered fuzzy DEHFSP.
