As for the manufacturing industry, the two-staged flowshop scheduling problem with the precedence requirement can be formulated as a CDSP, too. Owing to the nature of the sequencing decision problem associated with the CDSP, this study chooses the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), which has some inherited advantages over other meta-heuristics due to its sequential framework for the searching process and the solution building procedure. This study designs an ant-based algorithm to generate the outbound sequence under the condition of one single vehicle. Based on this ant-generated sequence, several heuristic steps are used to make the scheduling decision of both inbound and outbound vehicles under the multiple-vehicle situation. In the numerical experiment, the developed algorithm is compared with a solution algorithm based on the classic Johnson’s Rule in the literature.
