Parallelization of Memetic Algorithms and ElectromagnetismMetaheuristics for the Problem of Scheduling in the productionSystems of HFS type


Kadda Zerrouki and Khaled Belkadi

The metaheuristics are approximation methods which deal with difficult optimization problems. The Work that we present in this paper has primarily as an objective the adaptation and the implementation of two advanced metaheuristics which are the Memetic Algorithms (MA) and the Electromagnetism Metaheuristic (EM) applied in the production systems of Hybrid Flow Shop (HFS) type for the problem of scheduling. The Memetic Algorithms or hybrid genetic algorithms are advanced metaheuristic ones introduced by Moscato in 1989. Electromagnetism Metaheuristic (EM) draws its inspiration in the electromagnetic law of Coulomb on the particles charged. We will propose an adaptation of two methods to the discrete case on the problems of scheduling with the production systems (HFS). We present then a comparison between the Memetic Algorithms (MA), the Parallel Memetic Algorithms with Migration (PMA_MIG) and then we present a comparison between Electromagnetism Metaheuristic (EM) and Parallel Electromagnetism Metaheuristic with migration (PEM_MIG). Finally we give the results obtained by its algorithms applied to HFSs (HFS4: FH3 (P4, P2, P3) | | Cmax and HFS4: FH2 (P3, P2) | | Cmax) for the two problems: scheduling and assignment.

Keywords: advanced Metaheuristics, Hybrid Flow Shop (HFS), Memetic Algorithms (MA), Electromagnetism Metaheuristic (EM), and Parallelism.
