Abstract

This paper deals with a Genetic Programming (GP) approach for solving flexible shop scheduling problems. The adopted approach aims to generate priority rules in the form of an expression tree for dispatching jobs. Therefore, in a list-scheduling algorithm, the available jobs can be ranked using the tree-based priority rules generated using GP.
