A Hybrid Discrete Particle Swarm Algorithm for Open-Shop Problems

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 4247))

Abstract

A hybrid discrete particle swarm algorithm is presented in this paper to solve open-shop problems. The operations are redefined in the discrete particle swarm algorithm. To improve the performance the simulated annealing algorithm is combined with discrete particle swarm. We use SA to enhance the results of local best positions instead of current positions. The experimental results show that our hybrid discrete particle swarm algorithm is effective and efficient to solve open-shop problems.
