Description
Summary:•The mathematical programming model is established according to the processing flow of glass production.•The improved nondominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (INSGAII) is designed to optimize the problem.•An evolutionary strategy based on problem knowledge is developed.•A local search strategy based on critical factories is designed. The distributed hybrid flow shop problem (DHFSP) exists widely in real workshop production processes. Its process optimization has important academic significance and application value, and has become one of the research hotspots in the field of production scheduling. In this study, a multiobjective DHFS problem with carryover setup time and group constraints (DHFGSP) is considered with the background of glass processing, and the objectives are the completion time and time of use price. First, a mathematical programming model is established according to the processing flow of glass production. Second, an improved nondominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (INSGAII) is adopted to optimize the problem. Third, the evolutionary strategies based on problem knowledge are developed, and a local search strategy based on critical factories is designed. Finally, the proposed algorithm is compared with several of the most advanced multiobjective algorithms, which shows that INSGA-II has better performance for solving DHFGSP.
