Abstract

Cloud manufacturing (CM) is a new type of networked manufacturing model, which is proposed in 2010. Optimization technology is one of the key techniques for CM operation, which are used for the efficient integration of manufacturing resources. In all kinds of manufacturing resources, the machining equipment is one of the most important resources. Using optimization techniques to achieve optimal selection of machining equipment is rarely studied in the CM. In order to handle the optimization selection of machining equipment in CM, comparing with the existing resources optimal configuration, an optimal selection strategy is introduced for the machining equipment in CM. In the selection strategy, first, a multiple objective and binary integer programming model is proposed to describe the optimal selection of machining equipment in CM. Second, after analyzing the mathematical model and the real-world problem of the machining equipment selection in CM, the priority method is adopted to convert the multiple-objective problem into a single-objective problem. Third, an improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) algorithm based on a novel encoding scheme and fitness function is presented to solve the single-objective mathematical model. Finally, the simulation experiments verify the effectiveness of the IPSO algorithm and show that the selection strategy is more objective and effective to help the client select the machining equipment in the CM than current resources optimization model. This research provides a theoretical support for the development of CM.
