DOI: 10.1007/s40430-018-0980-4
Abstract: We investigate a new variant of the hybrid flow shop problem (HFSP) considering machine blocking and both sequence-independent and sequence-dependent setup times. Since the HFSP is NP-hard, we propose heuristic algorithms along with priority rules… read more here.
