Abstract

Making the right management decisions in the logging industry is a complex multi-factorial task. The multivariance of solutions consists of various options for the application of technological chains of logging operations and timber transportation. Indeed, today the market offers a lot of options for systems of forestry machines, with or without forest storage with timber transportation at different seasons. Previous studies propose mathematical dependencies, an algorithm, and methods to solve all these problems. It makes it possible to search for the maximum flow of minimum cost in the dynamic structure of the technological process of performing work at the enterprise. They determine the conditions for solving the problem by the graph method. However, the proposed calculations for graphs with a large number of vertices and arcs connecting them are very laborious and require a lot of time. To solve this problem, the article presents the development of a computer application that performs basic calculations and calculates the optimal technological sequence of operations. The algorithms of the application, its description and principle of operation have been presented. The developed program enables to automate the process of finding the optimal sequence of technological operations in the logging enterprise operating procedure. Upon receipt of the results, it is possible to compare and analyze various process options for decision making.
