A genetic algorithm for a setup operator constrained flexible flow shop lot streaming with detached and sequence dependent setups
… the use of genetic algorithms to optimize the flexible flow shop scheduling process in the presence of dual resource constraints. The objective is to minimize the makespan, which is a critical factor in improving production efficiency. Lot streaming is used to reduce the processing time of the …

A water flow algorithm for optimization problems
… natured-inspired algorithm, called the water flow algorithm (WFA), for solving optimization problems has been proposed. The algorithm is designed by simulating the hydrological cycle in meteorology and the erosion phenomenon in nature. Basic operators of this algorithm are based on the …
