Abstract

The single row facility layout problem (SRFLP) is the problem of arranging facilities with given lengths on a line, with the objective of minimizing the weighted sum of the distances between all pairs of facilities. The problem is NP-hard and research has focused on heuristics to solve large instances of the problem. In this paper we present a scatter search algorithm to solve large size SRFLP instances. Our computational experiments show that the scatter search algorithm is an algorithm of choice when solving large size SRFLP instances within limited time.
