Flow Shop Production Scheduling under Uncertainty within Infinite Intermediate Storage

Abstract

As to current situation of research on production scheduling under uncertainties in enterprises, Flow Shop production scheduling model is established based on the theory of fuzzy programming, in which fuzzy processing time is considered and the duration time of intermediate is unlimited. The maximum membership function of mean value has been applied to solve the non-linear fuzzy scheduling model in order to convert the fuzzy optimization problem to the general optimization problem. Finally, a cooperative co-evolutionary particle swarm optimization algorithm based on catastrophe added to improve the diversity of the swarm (CCPSO) is adopted to solve Flow Shop Production Scheduling Under Uncertainty within Infinite Intermediate Storage and results are obtained effectively.
