An effective metaheuristic with a differential flight strategy for the distributed permutation flowshop scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup times

作者：

Highlights：

• We introduced an olfactory exploration mechanism based on factory assignment and job sequence.

• We present a differential flight strategy.

• The lower bound property is applied to some operators contained in DFFO_DF.

• Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the DFFO_DF.
