Providing in-depth knowledge of how to implement the myriad conventional and intelligent techniques, this book delineates the different types of manufacturing optimization problems as well as the conventional and intelligent techniques for solving them. The author explores how to model optimization problems, select suitable techniques, develop the optimization algorithm and software, and implement the program. He covers how to develop and implement effective optimization procedures and algorithms for a wide variety of problems in design manufacturing. The book delineates five new techniques and all the manufacturing functions described have been successfully solved by Genetic Algorithm.
