Abstract

In this paper we suggest a hybridization scheme to solve Economic Lot Scheduling Problem (ELSP) using basic period approach. We proposed a hybrid approach based on Tabu Search (TS) optimization to find the optimum value of ki's and Golden Section Search (GSS) with parabolic interpolation to find the optimum value of basic period T. The proposed hybridized scheme is compared with the best known Genetic Algorithm (GA) [4] on Bomberger's dataset [1]. This hybrid approach is found competitive and efficient in solving Economic Lot Scheduling Problem and outperform the Genetic Algorithm on problems with higher machine utilization.
