Flow Shop Dataset with Static Line Characteristics

This dataset contains permutation flow shop problems that share the same line characteristics. In total, three lines are considered for which the processing times, number of machines, and the number of total jobs is stable. For each production day, the demand plan for one instance changes. The processing times are based on instances of Taillard (1993). The demand plan is generated using a multinomial distribution. Data structure: The dataset is divided into three subfolders for line 1 to line 3. Each subfolder contains 300 instances that represent daily production programs. The notation within an instance is denoted in Instance_Notation.mix
