Popis: A variation of customer demand over time periods has resulted in production layout’s efficiency especially in term of material handling cost. Machine re-location approach can help to maintain the flow distances but the costs related to the machine movement may be imposed. Cooperative redesigning of machine layouts between time periods was proposed to minimise both material handling and relocation costs. In this work, Teaching-Learning-Based Optimisation (TLBO) and its modifications were applied to solve non-identical machine layout redesign (MLRD) problem in multi-period multi-row configuration with demand uncertainty scenario. The computational experiments were carried out using eleven benchmarking datasets. The performance of the proposed methods was compared with the conventional Genetic Algorithm, Backtracking Search Algorithm. The effect of relocation cost on the layout design approach was also investigated.
