This paper propose a genetic algorithm based on extended Giffler & Thompson (EGT) procedure for hybrid flow shop (HFS) scheduling problem. In this method, each individual represents a complete schedule. The crossover and mutation operators are designed based on EGT algorithm. This algorithm is also used to generate initial population. Therefore, the search space is restricted to the active schedule space. Last, the performance of this algorithm is analyzed by computational experiments using…

Algorithms for Solving Production-Scheduling Problems
TLDR
It is shown that it is practical, in problems of small size, to generate the complete set of all active schedules and to pick the optimal schedules directly from this set and, when this is not practical, to random sample from the bet of allactive schedules.
