LLM-Evolved Heuristic Portfolios Enhance Job Shop Scheduling Adaptability

Researchers have developed DSevolve, a novel framework designed to enhance real-time adaptive scheduling in dynamic flexible job shops. This system utilizes a Large Language Model (LLM) to evolve a portfolio of complementary dispatching rules, moving beyond single-rule optimization. DSevolve separates offline rule library construction from online state-conditioned rule selection, enabling rapid adaptation to changing conditions like order arrivals or machine breakdowns. Experiments demonstrate that DSevolve outperforms individual LLM-evolved rules, classical dispatching rules, and other learning-based baselines by achieving lower mean makespans while maintaining the speed and interpretability of dispatching rules. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more efficient and responsive scheduling systems in dynamic industrial environments, improving operational throughput and resource utilization.

    DSevolve: Enabling Real-Time Adaptive Scheduling on Dynamic Flexible Job Shop with LLM-Evolved Heuristic Portfolios

    arXiv:2603.27628v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In dynamic flexible job shops, order arrivals, machine breakdowns, and processing-time deviations continually reshape the scheduling state and the priority trade-offs behind dispatching decisions. Dispatching rules are well suit…
