    Metaheuristic for Optimize the India Speed Post Facility Layout Design and Operational Performance Based Sorting Layout Selection Using DEA Method
    (Springer Verlag service@springer.de, 2020) Vadivel, S.M.; Sequeira, A.H.; Jauhar, S.K.
    Adoption of feasible location science is gaining more interest in the field of Facility Layout Design (FLD) problems among working researchers group. Many methods such as MCDM, Heuristics and Intelligent approaches are available to solve the FLD problems. However in reality, finding the feasible facility layout selection is subject to management as well as performances oriented selections. Here in India, speed post mail processing service industry is facing tremendous challenges like tumbling demands due to low production concern, gloomy trend in technology advancement, and fierce private couriers’ competition. Hence, the highly competitive operational performance is of much concern and attention is focused towards the direction of facility location science. This paper aims to examine the challenges of sustainable operational performance oriented layout selection by Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and proposes a genetic algorithm (GA) related to intelligent based approach, for finding the optimal total facility layout cost for a hypothetical South Indian speed post service office layout. In this paper, we used multiple-criteria facility layout selection problem using mathematical model generated with Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

    CNC Machine Shop Floor Facility Layout Design Using Genetic Algorithm
    (Springer, 2020) Vadivel, V.; Sequeira, A.H.; Jauhar, S.K.; Amirthagadeswaran, K.S.; Aravind Krishna, T.
    The facility layout is a well-planned process to assimilate equipment, human resources, and materials for processing a product most effectively. The facility layout problem (FLP) is an optimization problem that involves determining the shape and location of various departments within a facility, based on the inter-department distance and volume measures. CRAFT algorithm is one of the primary methods currently used for the optimization of facility layouts. The aim of this is analyzing and assessing various proposed layouts through this algorithm. The objective is to minimize the total layout cost. It depends on the material flow and distance between the departments. An attempt has also been made to optimize the layout through GA. © 2020, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
