ANT COLONY OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM FOR MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND OVERHAUL SCHEDULING OPTIMIZATION IN THE CONTEXT OF INDUSTRIE 4.0

Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm for Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul Scheduling Optimization in the Context of Industrie 4.0

Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) is a crucial sector in the remanufacturing industry and scheduling of MRO processes is significantly different from conventional manufacturing processes.In this study, we adopted a swarm intelligent algorithm, Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), to solve the EZEKIEL BREAD SESAME scheduling optimization of MRO proc
