Abstract
The distributed hybrid flow shop scheduling problem with machine breakdown is investigated to reduce the negative impact on real production caused by machine breakdown events. (DHFSPMB). DHFSPMB comprises two subproblems: the maintenance problem with machine breakdown and the distributed hybrid flow shop scheduling problem (DHFSP). A rescheduling method is designed to address the maintenance problem. Subsequently, a two-stage learning scatter search (TLSS) algorithm is proposed for optimizing the DHFSP when the machines break down. Firstly, a mixed integer programming model for DHFSPMB is constructed. Secondly, TLSS employs an improved reinforcement learning approach to enhance the capability of exploration by guiding the direction of global search. A two-stage approach is designed to address the lack of knowledge in the early periods of learning. Finally, a hybrid search strategy is devised to enhance the development capability of TLSS. The experimental results demonstrate that the TLSS algorithm outperforms the comparison algorithms in effectively addressing the DHFSPMB.
