A Simulation-Based Approach for the Productivity Improvement of Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems in the Steel Industry

Neroni, Mattia; Juan, Angel; Bertolini, Massimo - 2022

In automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS), the usage of intelligent algorithms can lead to a reduction in the makespan required to complete a series of input/output operations. This paper presents a simulation-optimisation algorithm which aims at minimising the makespan in a realistic...
