An Optimal Design of Simulated Annealing Approach to Mixed-Model Sequencing

The Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm has been successfully applied to various difficult combinatorial optimization problems. Since the performance of a SA algorithm, generally depends on values of the parameters, it is important to select the most appropriate parameter values. In this paper the SA algorithm is optimally designed for performance acceleration, by using the Taguchi method. Several test problems are solved via the SA algorithm optimally designed, and the solutions obtained are compared to solution results McMullen & Frazier(2000). The performance of the SA algorithm is evaluated in terms of solution quality and computation times. Computational results show that the proposed SA algorithm is effective and efficient in finding near-optimal solutions.
