Abstract

The present invention discloses a scheduling method and system based on a hybrid variable neighborhood search and gravitational search algorithm. The method includes: 1 setting parameters of the algorithm; 2 initializing an initial solution of the algorithm; 3 performing local search based on a gravitational search algorithm (GSA); 4 updating the initial solution; 5 determining whether an algorithm termination condition is satisfied; if yes, outputting the global optimal solution searched for by the algorithm, otherwise, returning to the step 3. According to the present invention, a near-optimal solution for the continuous batch processing problem based on position learning effect and linear starting time can be obtained, so that an enterprise can make full use of production resources thereof to the utmost extent, and thus reduce production costs and improve the enterprise service level and the customer satisfaction level.
