Abstract
In this paper a real-life flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSSP) for valve production having sequence-dependent setup times and machine unavailability constraints is studied. The aim is to minimize the weighted sum of earliness and tardiness of the scheduled jobs. Since this problem is known to be in the NP-Hard class we develop a Genetic Algorithm (GA) enriched with Iterated Local Search (ILS) to obtain near-optimal solutions for both the company’s problem and also for much larger instances in a reasonable run time. For the real-life implementation we develop a user-friendly Decision Support System (DSS) consisting of databases for the inputs a GA algorithm embedded as Python code and a Gantt Chart representation of solutions as the output. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.
