Abstract
Automatic guided vehicles are widely used in various types of warehouses including the automated container terminals. This paper provides a decision framework for port managers to design and schedule automatic guided vehicle routing plans under time-varying traffic conditions. A large number of computational experiments on a grid graph are conducted to validate the efficiency of the proposed decision framework. We also proposed one efficient queueing rule in automatic guided vehicle routing scheduling. Although the complexity of the problem is high, computational results show that our proposed decision framework can provide high quality solutions within a relatively short computation time.
