Research on decentralized control strategies for automated vehicle-based in-house transport systems: A survey

Schmidt, Thorsten; Reith, K.-B.; Klein, Nils; Däumler, M. - In: Logistics Research 13 (2020) 1, pp. 1-27

With the application of in-house logistics automated guided vehicle (AGV) systems for transportation three different control problems arise: task assignment, empty vehicle balancing and routing. With an increasing fleet size and especially when considering requirements like flexibility and...

Literature classification on dispatching of container terminal vehicles

Schwientek, Anne Kathrina; Lange, Ann-Kathrin; Jahn, Carlos - 2017

operations are essential to improve performance and productivity. Thereby, one main decision problem is dispatching the vehicles … on an extensive survey of dispatching literature published between 2000 and 2016, a classification scheme is developed … and applied to 81 scientific publications. The classification serves as a framework to propose a definition of dispatching …

Mechanical feasibility and decentralized control algorithms of small-scale, multi-directional transport modules

Krühn, Tobias; Sohrt, Simon; Overmeyer, Ludger - In: Logistics Research 9 (2016) 1, pp. 1-14

In this paper, we describe a conveyor matrix consisting of small-scale, multi-directional transport modules that are considerably smaller than the transported packets. If a large number of these modules are combined into a matrix, the emerging network solves transport tasks through cooperation...
