Simulated Annealing 2. Tabu-Search 3. Genetic Algorithms Heuristic technique is a method which seeks good (i.e. near-optimalsolutions) at a reasonable cost without being able to guaranteeoptimality.

  4. Dispatching Rules • A dispatching rule prioritises all the jobs that are waiting forprocessing on a machine. • Classification • Static: not time-dependent • Dynamic: time dependent • Local: uses information about the queue where the job is waiting or machine where the job is queued • Global: uses information about other machines (e.g. processing time of the jobs on the next machine on its route, or the current queue length

  5. Local Search Step. 1. Initialisation k=0 Select a starting solution S0S Record the current best-known solution by setting Sbest = S0 and best_cost = F(Sbest) Step 2. Choice and Update Choose a Solution Sk+1N(Sk) If the choice criteria cannot be satisfied by any member of N(Sk), then the algorithm stops if F(Sk+1) < best_cost then Sbest = Sk+1 and best_cost = F(Sk+1) Step 3. Termination If termination conditions apply then the algorithm stops else k = k+1 and go to Step 2.

  6. Global Optimum: better than all other solutions • Local Optimum: better than all solutions in a certain neighbourhood

  7. 1. Schedule representation • 2. Neighbourhood design • 3. Search process • 4. Acceptance-rejection criterion • 1. Schedule representation • Nonpreemptive single machine schedule • permutation of n jobs • Nonpreemptive job shop schedule • m consecutive strings, each representing a permutation ofn operations on a machine

  8. 2. Neighbourhood design • Single machine: • adjacent pairwise interchange • take an arbitrary job in the schedule and insert it in another positions • Job shop: • interchange a pair of adjacent operations on the critical path of the schedule • one-step look-back interchange

  9. current schedule (h, l) (h, k) machine h (i, j) (i, k) machine i • schedule after interchange of (i, j) and (i, k) (h, l) (h, k) machine h (i, k) (i, j) machine i • schedule after interchange of (h, l) and (h, k) (h, k) (h, l) machine h (i, k) (i, j) machine i

  10. 3. Search process • select schedules randomly • select first schedules that appear promisingfor example, swap jobs that affect the objective the most • 4. Acceptance-rejection criterion • probabilistic: simulated annealing • deterministic: tabu-search
