Abstract: In this paper, an ant colony optimization (ACO) approach is proposed to solve the Facility Layout Problem (FLP) with unequal area departments. The flexible bay structure (FBS) is relaxed by allowing empty spaces in bays, which results in more flexibility while assigning departments in bays. The comparative results show that the ACO approach is very promising.
