Review and classification of hybrid flow shop scheduling problems from a production system and a solutions procedure perspective. (English) Zbl 1183.90189

Summary: In this paper, an extensive review of recently published papers on hybrid flow shop (HFS) scheduling problems is presented. The papers are classified first according to the HFS characteristics and production limitations considered in the respective papers. This represents a new approach to the classification of papers in the HFS environment. Second, the papers have been classified according to the solution approach proposed. These two classification categories give a comprehensive overview on the state of the art of the problem and can guide the reader with respect to future research work.
