A RESEARCH ON SPINNING PRODUCTION SCHEDUING SYSTEM BASED ON COMPOUND-AGENT

The spinning production scheduling problem in woolen textile mill is a kind of complex Flowshop scheduling problem, to which one structure named Flowshop-Compound-Agent (FSCA) is provided and Genetic Algorithm is used. The structure, implementa tion and detail scheduling algorithm of FSCA are provided. The factual production scheduling system of spinning workshops which is based on FSCA is described. The results show the effectiveness of FSCA solving the Flowshop scheduling problem.
