The Use of a Genetic Algorithm for Sorting Warehouse Optimisation

In the last decade, simulation software as a tool for managing and controlling business processes has received lot of attention. Many new features allow businesses to achieve better quality results using optimisation, such genetic algorithms. This article describes use modelling in shipment sorting that are optimised by algorithm’s involvement. The designed algorithm model focuses on optimising duration processing times numbers workers. commercially available Tecnomatix Plant Simulation, paired with algorithm, was used decreasing time durations, thus selecting most suitable solution defined inputs. method produced comparison classical heuristic methods and, furthermore, is not consuming. article, at its core, determine optimal number workers warehouses application. final part this contains an evaluation proposal compared original methods, highlights what benefits result from changes. major purpose research needed speed up departure shipments optimise workload
