Energy-efficient scheduling for a flexible flow shop using an improved genetic-simulated annealing algorithm
TL;DR: In this paper, an energy-efficient model for flexible flow shop scheduling (FFS) is proposed, which is based on an energy efficient mechanism, and an improved, genetic-simulated annealing algorithm is adopted to make a significant trade-off between the makespan and the total energy consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Collaborative computer-aided design-research and development status
TL;DR: A 3D streaming technology, which can effectively transmit visualization information across networks for Web applications, is highlighted and the algorithms behind it are disclosed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cobot programming for collaborative industrial tasks: An overview
TL;DR: An overview of collaborative industrial scenarios and programming requirements for cobots to implement effective collaboration is given, and detailed reviews on cobot programming, which are categorised into communication, optimisation, and learning are conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simulated annealing-based optimization approach for integrated process planning and scheduling
Weidong Li,Chris McMahon +1 more
TL;DR: A unified representation model and a simulated annealing-based approach have been developed to facilitate the integration and optimization process to achieve the global optimization of product development and manufacturing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hybrid genetic algorithm and simulated annealing approach for the optimization of process plans for prismatic parts
TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid GA and simulated annealing (SA) approach is used to solve the problem of process planning for a prismatic part in a dynamic workshop environment, where the activities of selecting machining resources, determining set-up plans and sequencing machining operations are simultaneously considered.
