Abstract
- The energy problem in green manufacturing has attracted enormous attention from researchers and practitioners in the manufacturing domain with the global energy crisis and the aggravation of environmental pollution. The distributed blocking flow shop scheduling problem (DBFSP) has considerable application scenarios in connection with its widespread application in the industry under the background of intelligent manufacturing. A multi-objective discrete differential evolution (MODE) algorithm is proposed to solve the energy-efficient distributed blocking flow shop scheduling problem (EEDBFSP) with the objectives of the makespan and total energy consumption (TEC) in this paper. The cooperative initialisation strategy is proposed to generate the initial population of the EEDBFSP. The mutation, crossover, and selection operators are redesigned to enable the MODE algorithm as applied to discrete space. A local search strategy based on the knowledge of five operators is introduced to enhance the exploitation capability of the MODE algorithm in the EEDBFSP. The non-critical path energy-efficient strategy is proposed to reduce energy consumption according to the specific constraints in the EEDBFSP. The effectiveness of each strategy in the MODE algorithm is verified and compared with the state-of-the-art algorithms. The numerical results demonstrate that the MODE algorithm is the efficient optimiser for solving the EEDBFSP. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
