Since material handling agents in a FMS are most efficient when moving in straight lines, a common layout of machines in a FMS is a single row layout. This allows a floor designer to model the problem of generating an optimal machine layout in a FMS as a single row facility layout problem...

The single row facility layout problem (SRFLP) is the problem of arranging facilities with given lengths on a line, while minimizing the weighted sum of the distances between all pairs of facilities. The problem is known to be NP-hard. In this paper, we present a neighborhood search heuristic...

In this work we present a local search algorithm for the single row facility location problem. In contrast to other … local search algorithms for the problem, our algorithm uses an exponential neighborhood structure. Our computations indicate … that our local search algorithm generates solutions to benchmark instances of the problem whose costs are on average within …
