Two NEH Heuristic Improvements for Flowshop Scheduling Problem with Makespan Criterion
Since its creation by Nawaz, Enscore, and Ham in 1983, NEH remains the best heuristic method to solve flowshop scheduling problems. In the large body of literature dealing with the application of this heuristic, it can be clearly noted that results ...

Heuristic Revision by Heuristic Space Exploration [PDF]
Heuristics are often used to solve complex problems. Indeed, such problem-specific knowledge, when pertinent, helps to efficiency find good solutions to complex problems. Unfortunately, acquiring and maintaining a heuristic set can be fastidious. In order to face this problem, a approach consists in revising the heuristic sets by means of experiments ...

Heuristics and Meta-heuristics for Coping with Messes [PDF]
AbstractGiven the importance of Wicked Messes, we need to say more about ways of dealing with them. In a series of publications, we and our colleagues have developed a number of Heuristics for Coping with Messes. If the underlying conditions are met, there is every reason to believe that they will accomplish their intended job.

Sequence-Based Selection Hyper-Heuristic Model via MAP-Elites
Although the number of solutions in combinatorial optimization problems (COPs) is finite, some problems grow exponentially and render exact approaches unfeasible. So, approximate methods, such as heuristics, are customary.
