Integrated Petri net and ant colony optimization algorithm for the scheduling of FMS
整合Petri网和蚁群优化算法用于柔性制造系统调度优化研究

Satisfactory solution has not been obtained to the scheduling problem in flexible manufacturing system (FMS). Ant colony optimization algorithm integrated with Petri net was proposed to solve the scheduling optimization problem in FMS. A case study illustrates the effectiveness of this method.
