A Genetic Algorithm for a Multiple Objective Sequencing Problem in Mixed Model Assembly Lines

This paper is concerned with a sequencing problem in mixed model assembly lines, which is important to efficient utilization of the lines. In the problem, we deal with the two objectives of minimizing the risk of stoppage and leveling part usage, and consider sequence-dependent setup time. In this paper, we present a genetic algorithm(GA) suitable for the multi-objective optimization problem. The aim of multi-objective optimization problems is to find all possible non-dominated solutions. The proposed algorithm is compared with existing multi-objective GAs such as vector evaluated GA, Pareto GA, and niched Pareto GA. The results show that our algorithm outperforms the compared algorithms in finding good solutions and diverse non-dominated solutions.
