Abstract

In this paper, a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm based on gene expression programming (MOGEP) is proposed to construct scheduling rules (SRs) for dynamic single-machine scheduling problem (DSMSP) with job release dates. In MOGEP a fitness assignment scheme, diversity maintaining strategy and elitist strategy are incorporated on the basis of original GEP. Results of simulation experiments show that the MOGEP can construct effective SRs which contribute to optimizing multiple scheduling measures simultaneously.
