Entropy-Enhanced Genetic Algorithm with Tabu Search for Job Shop Scheduling Problems

Article Preview

Abstract:

By combining Genetic algorithm with Tabu search algorithm and adjusting crossover rate and mutation rate based on information entropy, a hybrid genetic algorithm was proposed for larger-scale job shop scheduling problems, and the benchmark instances were used to verify the algorithm with simulation. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can solve larger-scale job shop scheduling problems, and it has obvious advantages over traditional scheduling algorithms.
