Modeling and solution algorithms for facility layout of manufacturing systems;

Design of the facility layout based on an intelligent optimization algorithm;

The facility layout based on celluar manufacturing is an important hardware to support the Lean Manufacturing(LM).

Equipment Layout in Manufacture Unit of Resource Reconfiguration;

The types and characteristics of production systems in workshops,as well as the methods and related technologies of equipment layout were analyzed.

A optimization algorithm of TFT-LCD process equipment layout was advanced through the analysis of the process flows and the typical layout of TFT-LCD factories.

Study on machine layout problem based on genetic algorithm and Tabu search hybrid algorithm;

Research on the Facility Layout of Workshop Based on Genetic Algorithms;

Research on Machine Layout Problem Based on Partheno-Genetic Algorithm;

Machine layout problem has always been remained as one of the primitive and difficult designing problems of manufacturing, because it requires obtaining maximum benefit under insufficient resource in limited workshop space and all of those must meet the various and complex constrains of machine layout problem.
