Simulated annealing for order spread minimization in sequencing cutting patterns
Article Abstract:
A new version of simulated annealing (SA) was created to solve a sequencing problem called Order Spread Minimization Problem (OSMP) that results from industrial cutting operations planning. The developed SA generates faster computing times and higher solution quality than that of Madsen's approach. Its solution quality can be compared to those produced by the traditional 3-opt-procedure.
