Solutions to No-Wait Flow Shop Scheduling Problem Using the Flower Pollination Algorithm Based on the Hormone Modulation Mechanism

A flower pollination algorithm is proposed based on the hormone modulation mechanism (HMM-FPA) to solve the no-wait flow shop scheduling problem (NWFSP). This algorithm minimizes the maximum accomplished time. Random keys are encoded based on an ascending sequence of components to make the flower po...
