A New Genetic Algorithm for Parallel Machine Scheduling with Process Constraint
A new genetic algorithm is studied for solving parallel machine scheduling problems with process constraint to minimize the total number of tardy jobs.A so-called vector-group coding method is presented
which shows the quality of coding simply
decoding fast and satisfying process constraints automatically.A new crossover operator named Extended Order Crossover (EOX) is then proposed
which has the merits of automatically satisfying procedure constraints and preserving much genetic information.Mutation
the other genetic operator
is implemented with the combination of bit-mutation and swap-mutation to keep the population diverse.The algorithm behaves more efficiently than others experimentally using various random data and application instance from practical production line.
