Workshop Layout Design Based on Genetic Algorithm

Article Preview

Abstract:

Genetic algorithm is a kind of global stochastic research method that simulates biological evolution process to achieve optimal results. In this paper, we use genetic algorithm in the workshop layout design. The result shows that genetic algorithms can not only get excellent near optimal solutions, but also have high computing efficiency and practicability.
