In this paper, parallel simulated annealing with genetic enhancement algorithm (HSG) is presented and applied to permutation flow shop scheduling problem which has been proven to be NP-complete in the strong sense. The metaheuristics is based on a clustering algorithm for simulated annealing but introduces a new mechanism for dynamic SA parameters adjustment based on genetic algorithms. The proposed parallel algorithm is based on the master-slave model with cooperation. Fuzzy arithmetic on fuzzy numbers is used to determine the minimum completion times Cmax. Finally, the computation results and discussion of the algorithms performance are presented.
