| Abstract: | Flexible manufacturing systems /FMSs/ are automated factories in which many different part types are produced simultaneously. The tool-loading problem now adds further to the delicate task of finding an optimal schedule for such systems. In this paper a tabu search approach is developed to solve the job shop scheduling problems with tooling constraints. It is observed that, with a two criteria /the relative difference between the mean /respectively the worst/ objective function and the reference objective function/, the JEST algorithm provides satisfactory results. |
