On GPU Implementation of the Island Model Genetic Algorithm for Solving the Unequal Area Facility Layout Problem

Facility layout problem (FLP) is one of the hottest research areas in industrial engineering. A good facility layout can achieve efficient production management, improve production efficiency, and create high economic values. Because FLP is an NP-hard problem, meaning it is impossible to find the op...
