The scheduling of automatic guided vehicles for the workload balancing and travel time minimi-zation in the flexible manufacturing system by the nature-inspired algorithm

The real-time scheduling of automatic guided vehicles (AGVs) in flexible manufacturing system (FMS) is observed to be highly critical and complex due to the dynamic variations of production requirements such as an imbalance of AGVs loading, the high travel time of AGVs, variation in jobs, and AGV ro...
