Abstract
This paper provides a short summary of a novel algorithm tailored towards multi-objective flexible job shop scheduling problems (FJSP). The result shows that for challenging real-world problems in combinatorial optimization, off-the-shelf implementations of multi-objective optimization evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) might not work, but by using various adaptations, these methods can be tailored to provide excellent results. This is demonstrated for a state of the art MOEA, that is NSGA-III, and the following adaptations: (1) initialization approaches to enrich the first-generation population, (2) various crossover operators to create a better diversity of offspring, (3) parameter tuning, to determine the optimal mutation probabilities, using the MIP-EGO configurator, (4) local search strategies to explore the neighborhood for better solutions. Using these measures, NSGA-III has been enabled to solve benchmark multi-objective FJSPs and experimental results show excellent performance.
