Abstract—Textile industry, which is one of the most prominent industries in Indonesia, faces a problem caused by the condition of machine productions. This situation leads to a need of good machine scheduling system. Generally, production processes in textile industry belong to the flow shop scheduling problems (FSSP). Many approaches/heuristics have been proposed for solving FSSP. Two of them are Palmer’s algorithm and Gupta’s algorithm. This paper investigates a method, called genetic algorithm hyper-heuristic, for combining those heuristics in order to obtain some new better heuristics. This method is then implemented in a framework.
Index Terms—Scheduling, flowshop scheduling problem (FSSP), heuristics, hyper-heuristics, genetic programming.
