Hyperheuristic Design of Dispatching Rules

IP-2019-04-4333


  This project focuses on the application of various hyperheuristic methods with the aim of developing dispatching rules for dynamic scheduling problems that have not been thoroughly studied in the literature. In this project, the focus is placed on the unrelated machines scheduling environment and its variants. The project proposal encompasses several research directions aimed at improving the quality of hyperheuristics in automatic developing of the dispatching rules. Additionally, one of the project's goals is to extend this paradigm to related optimization problems, such as scheduling with resource constraints and vehicle routing. The project team possesses the necessary experience in applying hyperheuristics and optimization methods and has published preliminary results indicating the viability of further research in this area.
