Declarative Approach to AGVS Modeling and Cyclic Scheduling
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013The paper presents constraint satisfaction problem driven approach to analytical solution of the cyclic scheduling problem in the Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) producing multi-type parts where for material handling are used the Automated Guide Vehicles Systems (AGVS).

Task scheduling for multiple forklift AGVs in distribution warehouses
Proceedings of the 2014 IEEE Emerging Technology and Factory Automation (ETFA), 2014Distribution warehouses are considered in this paper with the aim of scheduling the transportation of pallet and roll pallet loads from the storage area to the gates at which the trucks arrive. Transportation activities are carried out by forklift AGVs that can move freely along the warehouse's aisles (guide paths are not considered). In this paper, an

SCHEDULING AND CONTROL OF AGV BASED MATERIAL HANDLING SYSTEMS
1992Abstract A Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) comsists of three inter-connected subsystems: a Production Machining System (PMS), a Material Handling System (MHS) and an Automated Storage/Retrieval System(AS/RS). Every subsystem has its own role in an FMS.

Scheduling and Routing of AGVs for Large-scale Flexible Manufacturing Systems
2019 IEEE 15th International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE), 2019In this paper, we propose a new heuristic as well as several improvements to an existing approach based on Benders decomposition for solving the conflict free scheduling and routing of automated guided vehicles (AGVs), with promising results. The existing method solves the problem in two stages; task assignment/sequencing, and feasibility check of the ...

An integrated scheduling method for AGV routing in automated container terminals
Computers & Industrial Engineering, 2018Abstract The simultaneous scheduling of quay cranes (QCs), automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and yard cranes (YCs) in automated container terminals (ACTs) has been a critical problem. This paper proposes an integrated scheduling for handling equipment coordination and AGV routing. With the goal of minimising makespan, we set up a bi-level programming

Comprehensive Review of the Dispatching, Scheduling and Routing of AGVs
2015Automated Guided Vehicle System (AGVS) has become an important strategic tool for automated warehouses. In a very competitive business scenario, they can increase productivity and reduce costs of FMS (Flexible Manufacturing System) transportation systems.

Scheduling Single AGV in Blocking Flow-Shop with Identical Jobs
Proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Operations Research and Enterprise SystemsWe consider a flow-shop with m stations (machines) and n identical jobs that need to be processed on each station. The processing time of every job on station i is pi. After a job is processed on a station i, it needs to be transported by an automated guided vehicle (AGV) to the next station i + 1. There is only one AGV.
