This study presents an algorithm for automated guided vehicle system routing. Priority-based genetic algorithm was used for genetic representation. The objective is minimal path transverse time. Weight mapping crossover (WMX) and insertion mutation was used as genetic operators. Conflict detection and avoidance was incorporated into the system using node and arc occupation time mapping for detection...
When an organization utilizes modern technology in its manufacturing process, it needs to update and upgrade its facilities repetitively by efficient ways to stay with great productivity along with efficiency so. Capital Budgeting (CB) problem is one of the most important issues in decision makings about capital in the manufacturing management. Sometimes all variables and parameters are not necessarily...
Artificial potential field (APF) is well established for reactive navigation of robots. Initially, this paper describes a fast and robust fuzzy-APF on an ActivMedia AmigoBot platform. Obstacle-related information is fuzzified just by sensory fusion which results in shorter runtime. The membership functions of obstacles' range and direction have been also merged into one function for smaller block...
Containers have been used in past decades increasingly as one of the most important transportation tools. Containers have revolutionized cargo shipping and thus changed the world trade systematically. Container terminals as the transhipment facility play a valuable role in performance of this transportation system. Improvement of this facility has been widely considered in literatures. Automated container...
