An Ant Colony Optimization Approach for the Machine-Part Cell Formation Problem
In this paper, the problem of grouping machines and parts into cells (machine-part cell formation problem) is considered with the objective of minimizing grouping efficacy. An ant colony optimization algorithm is developed to solve such problem. In the proposed algorithm, solutions are constructed i...
