Block transportation scheduling under delivery restriction in shipyard using meta-heuristic algorithms
We consider a scheduling problem of block transportation under delivery restriction. We derive a mathematical model to minimize the penalty times that can cause delays in the overall block production schedule. We propose two meta-heuristic algorithms based on genetic algorithm (GA) and self-evolution algorithm (SEA). We evaluate the performances of the GA and SEA using several randomly generated examples.
