Simulation-Based AGV Management with a Linear Dispatching Rule

open access: yes2023 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC), 2023
This paper considers the problem of real-time dispatching of a fleet of heterogeneous automated guidedvehicles (AGVs) with battery constraints. The AGV fleet is heterogeneous in terms of material handlingcapabilities; some can tow loads, some can lift loads while others manipulate loads with the assistance ofa robotic arm.

A Comparative Study of Dispatching Rule Representations in Evolutionary Algorithms for the Dynamic Unrelated Machines Environment

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Dispatching rules are most commonly used to solve scheduling problems under dynamic conditions. Since designing new dispatching rules is a time-consuming process, it can be automated by using various machine learning and evolutionary computation methods.

Constructing Ensembles of Dispatching Rules for Multi-objective Problems

open access: yes, 2022
Scheduling represents an important aspect of many real-world processes, which is why such problems have been well studied in the literature. Such problems are often dynamic and require that multiple criteria be optimised simultaneously. Dispatching rules (DRs) are the method of choice for solving dynamic problems.

An approach to cooking process scheduling for a family restaurant

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2018
The quality of service at restaurants depends not only on the quality of dishes served but also on the waiting time and the timing of when the dishes are provided. For high quality service, scheduling the cooking processes of the ordered dishes is needed.
