Abstract
Scheduling the production for plating machines is a tedious and difficult task of critical importance for the economic exploitation of this equipment. The paper describes a promising approach to solving a simple version of this problem, namely cyclical hoist scheduling, based on evolutionary algorithms. The issues of solution encoding and specialised genetic operators are discussed and some preliminary results are presented.
