A Developed Cuckoo Search Algorithm for Solving a new Model of the Machine and Vehicle Scheduling

In this paper, a new machine and vehicle simultaneous scheduling model has been developed taking into account the feasibility of transport, and the dependence of transport time on the type of work, considering the stopping time of the machine and its repair time, which is compatible with the industry environment. To find the answer, the multi-objective cuckoo search algorithm has been developed and for comparing and testing its efficiency, two other algorithms with the same structure have been used. The results obtained by the developed multi-objective cuckoo search algorithm were compared with other algorithms and the results show the superior quality of the solutions of the developed multi-objective cuckoo search algorithm for solving this type of problem. Therefore, using this new problem with the proposed solution method in the industrial environment will simultaneously reduce processing costs and increase the level of product quality and increase the level of customer service.
