Symbiotic organisms search algorithm for the unrelated parallel machines scheduling with sequence-dependent setup times.

This paper addresses the problem of makespan minimization on unrelated parallel machines with sequence dependent setup times. The symbiotic organisms search (SOS) algorithm is a new and popular global optimization technique that has received wide acceptance in recent years from researchers in contin...
