A multi-objective simulated-annealing algorithm for scheduling in flowshops to minimize the makespan and total flowtime of jobs

In this paper, we consider the problem of permutation flowshop scheduling with the objectives of minimizing the makespan and total flowtime of jobs, and present a Multi-Objective Simulated-annealing Algorithm (MOSA). Two initial sequences are obtained by using simple and fast existing heuristics, su...
