Abstract
The Cloud Manufacturing Service Composition and Scheduling (CMfg-SCS) are essential processes in cloud manufacturing. Flexible Manufacturing Services (FMS), such as those provided by industrial robots, are widely used in cloud manufacturing to improve service quality and efficiency. Traditional CMfg-SCS methodologies, however, fall short in effectively managing the inherent temporal-dynamic QoS and flexible capability of FMS. To overcome these challenges, we propose a novel Cloud Manufacturing Service Cloud-edge Collaboration Composition and Scheduling (CMfg-SCCCS) method for FMS. Firstly, the service-task matching hypernetwork is constructed, and the temporal-dynamic QoS and flexible capacity of FMS are modeled. Subsequently, we develop a CMfg-SCCCS optimization model aimed at three objectives, along with a cloud-edge collaboration scheduling mechanism to harmonize cloud and edge-local tasks. Finally, a multi-population co-evolution algorithm with adaptive meta-knowledge transfer mechanism is proposed to solve the complex optimization model. The computational experiments serve to validate the effectiveness of the CMfg-SCCCS method and further reveal the superiority of the co-evolution algorithm in enhancing both the convergence and diversity of the population.
期刊介绍:
The journal, Robotics and Computer-Integrated Manufacturing, focuses on sharing research applications that contribute to the development of new or enhanced robotics, manufacturing technologies, and innovative manufacturing strategies that are relevant to industry. Papers that combine theory and experimental validation are preferred, while review papers on current robotics and manufacturing issues are also considered. However, papers on traditional machining processes, modeling and simulation, supply chain management, and resource optimization are generally not within the scope of the journal, as there are more appropriate journals for these topics. Similarly, papers that are overly theoretical or mathematical will be directed to other suitable journals. The journal welcomes original papers in areas such as industrial robotics, human-robot collaboration in manufacturing, cloud-based manufacturing, cyber-physical production systems, big data analytics in manufacturing, smart mechatronics, machine learning, adaptive and sustainable manufacturing, and other fields involving unique manufacturing technologies.
