Abstrakt: The Job Shop Scheduling Problem (JSP), a classical NP-hard challenge, has given rise to various complex extensions to accommodate modern manufacturing requirements. Among them, the Dynamic Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem (DFJSP) remains particularly challenging, due to its stochastic task arrivals, heterogeneous deadlines, and varied task types. Traditional optimization- and rule-based approaches often fail to capture these dynamics effectively. To address this gap, this study proposes a hybrid algorithm, GA-HPO PPO, tailored for the DFJSP. The method integrates genetic-algorithm–based hyperparameter optimization with proximal policy optimization to enhance learning efficiency and scheduling performance. The algorithm was trained on four datasets and evaluated on ten benchmark datasets widely adopted in DFJSP research. Comparative experiments against Double Deep Q-Network (DDQN), standard PPO, and rule-based heuristics demonstrated that GA-HPO PPO consistently achieved superior performance. Specifically, it reduced the number of overdue tasks by an average of 18.5 in 100-task scenarios and 197 in 1000-task scenarios, while maintaining a machine utilization above 67% and 28% in these respective scenarios, and limiting the makespan to within 108–114 and 506–510 time units. The model also demonstrated a 25% faster convergence rate and 30% lower variance in performance across unseen scheduling instances compared to standard PPO, confirming its robustness and generalization capability across diverse scheduling conditions. These results indicate that GA-HPO PPO provides an effective and scalable solution for the DFJSP, contributing to improved dynamic scheduling optimization in practical manufacturing environments.
