Today, the flow shop environment is the most customary production area in industry. But, the need to increase the capacity or the capacity balance in different production processes has caused that in some working stations there exists more than one machine. This type of flow shops are usually named hybrid flow shop, multi processes flow shop, flexible flow shop or flow shop with parallel machines. In this article, the time scheduling of hybrid flow shop with the assumption of machine similarity is studied using a bi-criterion programming problem. Taking the fact that the proposed problem is an NP-hard type problem a genetic algorithm is developed and a sample problem is solved for illustration purposes.
Keywords: Hybrid flow shop, Genetic algorithm, and Bicriterion Programming.
