A general framework for scheduling equipment and manpower on container terminals

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper, we propose a general model for various scheduling problems that occur in container terminal logistics. The scheduling model consists of the assignment of jobs to resources and the temporal arrangement of the jobs subject to precedence ...

TEMPORAL LOGIC AS A SIMULATION LANGUAGE [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
We advocate the use of temporal logic instead of the first-order logic in rules of knowledge-based simulation systems. We argue that this provides several advantages that will be discussed in the paper. We show how temporal logic is used in simulation by

Communication and control in an integrated manufacturing system [PDF]

open access: yes
Typically, components in a manufacturing system are all centrally controlled. Due to possible communication bottlenecking, unreliability, and inflexibility caused by using a centralized controller, a new concept of system integration called an Integrated
