A dynamic programming–enhanced simulated annealing algorithm for solving bi-objective cell formation problem with duplicate machines

Cell formation process is one of the first and the most important steps in designing cellular manufacturing systems. It consists of identifying part families according to the similarities in the design, shape, and presses of parts and dedicating machines to each part family based on the operations r...
