A comparison of simulated annealing algorithms in the scheduling of multiproduct serial batch plants

In this work, several simulated annealing algorithms presented in the literature as solutions to different problems were compared in the scheduling of multiproduct serial batch plants. A systematic performance study of the original algorithm, based on the Boltzmann statistics, and a recently propose...
