Abstract: Scheduling problems are one of the widely used problems which have both academic and real-life applications. In academic fields, it can be used to test the efficiency of a newly developed solution techniques. As it is known to be NP-hard, these problems are keystones to show the performance of a new or improved method, especially metaheuristics. Apart from the standard scheduling problems, one of its challenging sub-problem is hybrid flow shop (HFS) scheduling. Except from the literature survey of Ruiz and Vázquez-Rodríguez (2010), no recent analysis is given to give the new solution trends in HFS. To solve this missing piece, in this study 219 HFS articles from 2010-2019 period are analysed with the main focus of metaheuristic techniques. Also, analysis based on the citations are given.
