Abstract

Concerning the optimal configuration of manufacturing resources in networked manufacturing environment, the transportation time and cost were considered based on process time, process cost and other factors in order to increase practicability of the configurated result. The comprehensive optimization model was built. The problem was solved by using a genetic algorithm which included the elitist strategy. The proposed model and algorithm were proved through an application case. The research shows that the total transportation time and cost have been decreased by taking transportation factors into account, and the result becomes more practicable.
