Abstract:
Cloud Manufacturing environment enables enterprises to share their resources together for rental profits and customized production. The fact that most manufacturing devices are organized and controlled in a particular production line hinders the flexible use of the corresponding services in a cloud platform. Therefore, the collaborative selection of upper layer suppliers and the underlying manufacturing services is of great importance, but rarely considered. To address the problem, a two-layer integrated model of supplier selection and service scheduling is proposed to provide feasible solutions for different kinds of production requirements. The decomposition-based multi-objective evolutionary algorithm, i.e., MOEA/D, is applied to minimize the production time, the rental cost and the transportation cost for producing a customized product. We empirically demonstrate that the integrated optimization way is more efficient than the original two-step decision way in practice.
