摘要：

This paper presents an ant colony optimization metaheuristic for the solution of an industrial scheduling problem in an aluminum casting center. We present an efficient representation of a continuous horizontal casting process which takes account of a number of objectives that are important to the scheduler. We have incorporated the methods proposed in software that has been implemented in the plant. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
