Based on genetic algorithm, the optimal of assembly sequence of each structure level can be obtained by sequence-by-sequence search. As a result, a better assembly sequence of the product can be generated by combining the assembly sequences of all hierarchical structures, which provides more parallelism and flexibility for assembly operations.
