| Abstract: | The Order Spread Minimization Problem (OSMP) is a sequencing problem that arises in the process of planning industrial cutting operations. As it can be looked upon as a generalization of the Travelling-Salesman Problem (TSP), it has to be classified as NP-complete. Thus heuristic algorithms are required in order to solve large problem instances. In this paper the authors suggest to apply Simulated Annealing (SA) to the OSMP. A specific version of SA is developed. |
