Application of genetic algorithm to mixed-model assembly line balancing
… has caused increased popularity of mixed-model assembly lines. These lines combine the productivity of an assembly line and the flexibility of a job shop. The mixed-model assembly line allows setup time between models to be zero. Large lines mixed-model assembly lines require a timely, …

A Novel Algorithm for Solving the Multi-Objective Assembly Line Balancing Problem
The assembly line balancing (ALB) problems address the issue of assigning work elements and workers into different workstations to optimize a predetermined set of objective parameters such as the number of workstations, the cycle time and the production efficiency. Most of these combinatorial …

A methodology to solve single-model, stochastic assembly line balancing problem and its extensions
… for the solution of single-model, stochastic assembly line balancing problem is developed for the objective of minimizing the total labor cost (dictated by the number of stations on the line) and expected incompletion cost arising from tasks not completed within the prespecified cycle time. …

The application of simulated annealing to the mixed model, deterministic assembly line balancing problem
… shorter delivery time, the use of mixed model assembly lines is increasing. A line balancing approach is needed that can address the complex nature of the mixed model line and produce near optimal solutions to problems of realistic size. Due to the combinatorial nature of the line balancing …

Hybrid artificial bee colony algorithm with branch and bound for two–sided assembly line balancing
The two-sided assembly-line balancing (2SALB) is widely used in various production systems especially in high-volume large-size products. However, not many types of research are focused on the study of the 2SALB problem. Recently, the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm was used in the solution …
