Cost Reduction in the Manufacturing Process by Multiskill Training using Psbcsp Algorithm

The paper contains the study of Multi skill training to the employees, which includes equalizing the work pressure among the employees and managing the shortage of employees in the manufacturing process. A mathematical model was formed with an objective of minimizing the total expected cost of the employees in the manufacturing process. Positive Selection Based Clonal Selection Principle(PSBCSP) algorithmis used to stimulate the solutions. The results showed that the multi skill training program yields a better result compared to non-trained employees.
