This study strives to schedule a just-in-time hybrid flowshop with sequence-dependent setup times by considering two performance measures, namely makespan and sum of the earliness and tardiness, simultaneously. The paper proposes a mixed integer programming model. However, since the simpler case with a single stage and with a single machine per stage is NP-hard, the utilization of the exact algorithms for the real-life problems is limited. Thus, this paper proposes a novel solving algorithm with a weighted L p -metric-based framework. Since the particle swarm optimization is originally designed for continuous solution space, in this study, we modify the particle position based on our representation so that a particle position is decoded into a schedule using the largest processing time algorithm, Hadamard product, and swap operator. Furthermore, we apply a variable neighborhood search and a tabu search to improve the solution quality. This hybridization which combines the advantages of the individual components is the key innovative aspect of the approach. We investigate the performance of our algorithm in the comparison with several algorithms and show that it has a good performance.
