A solution methodology producing exact solutions to the manufacturing systems cell formation problem is presented. A distance matrix representing the closeness between pairs of machines with regard to the parts they process is taken into account. The proposed approach is an optimal tree search metho
Ant colony optimization (ACO) is a population-based meta-heuristic for combinatorial optimization problems such as the communication network routing problem (CNRP). This paper proposes an improved ant colony optimization (IACO) technique, which adapts a new strategy to update the increased pheromone
