Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are a class of evolutionary algorithms that have been successfully applied to scheduling problems, in particular job-shop and flow-shop type problems where a number of theoretical benchmarks exist. This work applies a genet... Read More about Scheduling chicken catching - an investigation into the success of a genetic algorithm on a real world scheduling problem..
