Dynamic Layout Optimization Based on Improved Genetic Algorithm
Abstract— In order to reduce the total cost of the workshop layout under dynamic environment, a dynamic
layout optimization model is established to minimize the cost of material handling and equipment adjustment.
An improved genetic algorithm is proposed to solve the model, and the initial population with high fitness is
generated to reduce the search time. The effectiveness of the improved genetic algorithm and the accuracy of
the model are verified by some numerical examples.
