Abstract:
In this paper we suggest a hybridization scheme to solve Economic Lot Scheduling Problem (ELSP) using basic period approach. We proposed a hybrid approach based on Cuckoo Search (CS) optimization to find the optimum value of kiâ€™s and Golden section search with parabolic interpolation to find the optimum value of basic period T. The proposed hybridized scheme is compared with the best known Genetic Algorithm [4] on Bombergerâ€™s dataset [1]. This hybrid approach is found competitive and efficient in solving Economic Lot Scheduling Problem and outperform the Genetic Algorithm on problems with lower machine utilization as well as higher machine utilization.
