The tasks scheduling problem on linear production systems Flow Shop has been a topic of great importance in the operations research which seeks to establish optimal job scheduling in machines within a production process in an industry. A methodology for solving the Flexible Flow Shop problem is presented taking into account the features and the combinatorial characteristics of the problem. The mathematical model is solved through using Chu-Beasley’s Genetic Algorithm. The methodology is probed by evaluating nine tests cases of the specialized literature with low, medium and high mathematical complexity.
