  • Evaluation of scheduling rules for single- and dual-dock automated storage

    Creator:
    Wang, Wen-tsao
    Abstract:
    Automated Storage and Retrieval (AS/R) Systems have had a considerable impact on manufacturing and distribution processes. The configuration of AS/R systems vary considerably, depending on the particular application. The effect of different retrieval scheduling rules is analyzed and compared for three different unit-load AS/R systems operating under dual-command cycle. The...

  • Multiobjective decision making in industrial energy and environmental planning

    Creator:
    Kang, Hee Jung
    Abstract:
    Multiobjective Decision Making (MODM) has been suggested for the solution of complicated decision problems. Decision analysis in numerous areas, including industrial energy and environmental planning, necessarily requires consideration of multiple conflicting objectives. MODM has been successfully applied to a number of these problems of this type. Moreover, it has the...

  • A systematic approach to multi-criteria site selection with an analysis of weight sensitivity

    Creator:
    Mills, Nancy L.
    Abstract:
    Site selection decisions are major components of a company's overall corporate strategy, usually involving incommensurate and possibly conflicting goals, and having long term effects on the productivity and profitability of the firm. The nature of the process requires the application of multi-criteria decision analysis techniques. Multi-criteria site selection involves identification...
