A genetic algorithm (GA) was applied to the decision-making process of the operation sequence based on the sequence constraints. The optimal or near-optimal operation sequence satisfying for the production requirements was obtained by the improved GA, and the choices of machines and tools were considered simultaneously. From the example, the process of the decision-making for the operations sequence and the choices of the relative machines and tools was described by using GA.
