Abstract

Energy-efficient scheduling has become a new trend in industry and academia, mainly due to extreme weather conditions, stricter environmental regulations, and volatile energy prices. This work addresses the energy-efficient Job shop Scheduling Problem with speed adjustable machines. Thus, in addition to determining the sequence of the operations for each machine, one also needs to decide on the processing speed of each operation. We propose a multi-population biased random key genetic algorithm that finds effective solutions to the problem efficiently and outperforms the state-of-the-art solution approaches.

This work is financed by National Funds through the Portuguese funding agency, FCT - Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, within project LA/P/0063/2020.
