Abstract: Hybrid flow shop robotic cells scheduling problem with blocking is researched. Firstly, for constructing feasible solution, Feasible Robotic Activity Insertion Method(FRAIM) is proposed. Secondly, Double Layers Filtered Variable Width Beam Search(DLFVWBS) algorithm is developed for solving the problem according to FRAIM. During search process, to obtain promising nodes, a local evaluation function and a global evaluation function are used. Finally, compared to Variable Neighborhood Search based on the feasible solution which is generated by Branch and Bound(BBVNS), Branch and Bound(BB) method, Beam Search according to Local evaluation function(LBS), Beam Search based on Global evaluation function(GBS), Double Layers Filtered Fixed Width Beam Search(DLFFWBS) algorithm, for solving stochastic generated stances, the results show that the DLFVWBS algorithm can enhance significantly the search efficiency, and the average improvement of solution is 3.07%, 6.07%, 7.79%, 12.62% and 14.47% respectively.
