TY - JOUR T1 - Approaches to Solving of Permutation Flow Shop Scheduling Problem: An Exploration Study AU - Lazar, Ivan JO - Research Journal of Applied Sciences VL - 7 IS - 9 SP - 426 EP - 434 PY - 2012 DA - 2001/08/19 SN - 1815-932x DO - rjasci.2012.426.434 UR - https://makhillpublications.co/view-article.php?doi=rjasci.2012.426.434 KW - Flow shop KW -PFSSP KW -mapping KW -realm KW -production AB - Permutation flow shop scheduling problems present an important class of sequencing problems in the realm of production planning. The study briefly reviews typical categories of the PFSSPs in accordance with a defined classification scheme of the particular problems. Subsequently, a review of frequent approaches and methods for PFSSP solving is treated. A final section of the study summarizes findings of this review that is mapping the field over field over the last 25 years. ER -
