Abstract:

This paper considers two stage hybrid flow shop (HFS) with identical parallel machine. The objectives is to determine makespan have been minimized. This paper presented memetic algorithm procedure to solve two stage HFS problems. To evaluated performance of propose method, the results have been compared with two meta-heuristic, genetic algorithm, simulated annealing. The experimental results show that propose method is more effective and efficient than genetic algorithm and simulated annealing to solve two stage HFS scheduling problems.
