An Intelligent Method for Evaluation of Production Scheduling Performance

Abstract

To predict the production scheduling performance in a shop floor, an intelligent method based on a modified league championship algorithm is proposed. The method overcomes the problems like premature, being stuck to local minima, etc. A new match schedule is introduced to enhance the competition capability for every single team. One scheme for updating the team member is presented to diversify the population. The application of the proposed method on the production scheduling showed that the novel approach could provide accurate prediction of scheduling performance indexes and is capable of being used in the real world shop floor.

A method for evaluating management capability of workshop production scheduling

“…Mapokgole and Mbohwa 25 evaluated the performance of production scheduling from an economic perspective. Xu et al 26 proposed an intelligent method to provide accurate prediction of scheduling performance indexes, which is capable of being used in the real world shop floor. Himmiche et al 21 proposed a discrete event systems (DES)-based evaluation approach for robust production scheduling under machine failures.…”
