Hybrid particle swarm optimization algorithm for assembly line balancing problem-2

This paper discussed the types of Assembly Line Balancing Problem and relevant algorithms, presented the mathematical description of Assembly Line Balancing Problem-2. Using PSO´s global search capability and high efficient of searching with SA´s local search capability, proposing a hybrid PSO algorithm for Assembly Line Balancing Problem-2 and giving out a solving procedure based on the analysis of standard PSO algorithm for Assembly Line Balancing Problem-2. The result of example shows that the proposed the hybrid PSO algorithm is more effective than standard PSO algorithm on Assembly Line Balancing Problem-2.
