自动化码头双小车岸桥与AGV协调调度问题研究

为研究自动化集装箱码头中自动导引运输车（Automated Guided Vehicle，AGV）与双小车岸桥（Double-Trolley Quay Crane，QC）的协调调度问题，考虑双小车岸桥中转平台及其容量限制，并以双小车岸桥门架小车时间窗为约束，建立以集装箱任务最大完工时间最小化为目标的混合整数规划模型。设计启发式算法，由中转平台的容量求得岸桥门架小车操作集装箱任务的时间窗，并采用遗传算法进行求解，给出相应的AGV调度优化方案，解决两大设备的协调调度问题。最后，以10组实验为例，比较了遗传算法与粒子群算法的优化结果。结果表明两种算法一致，且基于遗传算法的模型求解收敛速度更快，从而验证了该算法的可行性。     

考虑作业状态能耗的集装箱码头设备协调调度

绿色港口日渐成为港口发展的必然趋势,为了提高集装箱码头的服务水平及降低其能耗,综合分析了集装箱码头的装卸作业流程,考虑岸桥、场桥、集卡在不同作业状态下的能耗,且以总完工时间和总作业能耗最小为目标建立了多目标混合整数规划模型。使用MATLAB编码改进自适应遗传算法求解所建模型,并分别与CPLEX和原始遗传算法的求解结果作对比,证明了该算法的优秀性。更改能耗目标和作业时间目标所占权重进行求解,发现考虑各设备在不同作业状态下的能耗会影响总完工时间,且能耗与作业时间是相互冲突的目标,追求低能耗会造成作业效率的牺牲。分析结果表明,所建模型和算法在岸桥、场桥和集卡的协调调度问题中可以帮助决策者更好地权衡作业时间和能耗目标。     

基于作业链的泊位与岸桥协同调度研究

针对泊位与岸桥协同调度问题,引入“链式优化”思路,用作业链的方法分析集装箱装卸作业过程,首先将泊位计划作为开始链单元,采用资源节点优化策略进行分析,以最小化船舶在港总成本为目标建立模型;然后将岸桥卸船作业作为结束链单元,采用任务节点优化策略进行分析,以最小化岸桥最大完工时间为目标建立模型。考虑到作业链的整体性能,设计嵌套循环算法进行求解,内循环中用遗传算法分别求解泊位岸桥分配模型和岸桥调度模型,外循环中用岸桥数量作为公用变量对两个模型进行传递和反馈,寻找协同调度最优解。与单独调度进行对比,结果表明协同调度的优化效果更好;与粒子群算法、蚁群算法和蜂群算法的求解结果进行比较,表明遗传算法在求解质量和效率方面都更优,证明了提出的模型和算法能够有效解决此问题。

考虑泊位偏好和岸桥移动的泊位岸桥联合调度

为了更高效地利用码头资源,同时考虑泊位资源和岸桥资源,建立了考虑泊位偏好和岸桥移动频数的泊位岸桥联合调度两阶段模型。第一阶段模型采用船舶到港时间可变的到港策略,建立了以船舶等待成本、泊位偏离成本、延迟离港成本之和最小为目标的混合整数规划模型。第二阶段模型考虑了岸桥的干扰约束,建立了以岸桥移动频数最小为目标的整数规划模型。使用MATLAB设计改进的自适应变异粒子群算法对模型进行求解,并将结果与CPLEX和原始粒子群算法的求解结果对比,证明该算法的高性能。在两阶段模型中引入泊位偏离因子[β]来表示泊位偏离对船舶工作量的间接影响,分析[β]变化对船工作情况的影响。发现在计划期内,岸桥资源一定的情况下,船舶偏离偏好泊位会影响总的工作成本,尤其是当所有船舶总工作量较大时,[β]增加会造成总成本的激增。结果表明该模型和算法在解决泊位-岸桥的联合调度问题方面的有效性。

实时系统调度算法综述

在多道程序环境下,主存中有多个进程,其数目往往多于处理机数目。操作系统通过处理机调度程序,按照某种调度算法动态地把处理机分配给就绪队列中的一个进程,使之执行。处理机是重要的计算机资源,提高处理机的利用率及改善系统性能（吞吐量、响应时间）,很大程度上取决于处理机调度性能的好坏,因而操作系统的调度算法是非常重要的。通过研究基本的操作系统作业（进程）调度算法,详尽分析和对比这些调度算法的优势和劣势。最后对新兴的实时系统研究现状进行介绍和展望,为以后实时系统调度算法研究提供了有效的参考价值。     

Reactive scheduling in the multi-mode RCPSP

The multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem (MRCPSP) involves the determination of a baseline schedule of the project activities, which can be executed in multiple modes, satisfying the precedence relations and resource constraints while minimizing the project duration. During the execution of the project, the baseline schedule may become infeasible due to activity duration and resource disruptions. We propose and evaluate a number of dedicated exact reactive scheduling procedures as well as a tabu search heuristic for repairing a disrupted schedule, under the assumption that no activity can be started before its baseline starting time. We report on promising computational results obtained on a set of benchmark problems.     

The impact of reserve duties on the robustness of a personnel shift roster: An empirical investigation

In personnel scheduling, a duty roster is typically constructed under the assumption of a deterministic model. However, organisations operate in a stochastic environment and the conjectures made about the demand for staff and the availability of employees may prove to be insufficient to represent reality. In order to anticipate these unexpected events, we investigate the impact of introducing reserve duties in the medium-term personnel shift roster. Reserve duties are scheduled by enforcing specific staffing requirements and/or time-related constraints that consider reserve duties only. We propose a three-step methodology that imitates the workforce management process to evaluate the delivered robustness in terms of the actual performance. After a personnel roster is constructed, unexpected events are simulated and an optimisation model determines the required adjustments to balance supply and demand. Detailed computational experiments are presented to provide managerial insights into different strategies to schedule reserve duties.

Cut scheduling in the apparel industry

A problem encountered in the apparel industry is that of producing, with no excess, a known number of different styles from the same cloth. This situation occurs, for instance, in the case of special order or made-to-order garments. In the cutting process, plies of cloth are spread on a cutting table, and several patterns are placed across the top ply. Cutting out the patterns through all plies creates a set of bundles of garment pieces, and several such lays may be required to satisfy all demands. The cut scheduling problem concerns finding a feasible cutting schedule having the minimum number of lays. We present an exact enumerative approach that identifies all optimal solutions to a practically important variant of this problem. The availability of multiple solutions allows greater flexibility and permits decision makers to apply additional criteria in selecting an appropriate cutting schedule. Computational evidence shows that our approach can efficiently solve standard test problems from the literature as well as some very challenging examples provided by a global garment manufacturer.     

Integrated bus transit scheduling for the Beijing bus group based on a unified mode of operation

This paper presents an applied study of scheduling buses and drivers for the Beijing Bus Group (BJBUS), the largest bus company in China. This is pioneering research in China for bus transit scheduling using computers based on a unified mode of operation. It is anticipated that the research fruits and experiences obtained would be of benefit to other bus operators in China. The bus transit scheduling problem in BJBUS is first presented in the paper. The particular characteristics are pointed out, which are different from those in developed countries, while many are common in China. After a brief review and analysis of the appropriateness of some currently successful approaches, the paper focuses on reporting the solution ideas and methods for BJBUS, especially those developed to solve the specific problems of BJBUS, such as scheduling buses with built-in meal periods, multi-type bus scheduling, restricting drivers to one or two particular buses, etc. Finally, the implementation and computational results are reported before the concluding remarks.     

Development of scheduling strategies in the TITAN operating system

Scheduling strategies are evolved to solve problems of selection in operating systems. Such strategies frequently undergo evolution in time as details of the specification are changed or, more frequently, as inadequacies in them are shown up by use in a heavily loaded system. This paper describes a number of scheduling strategies used in the TITAN system, and their development to meet changing circumstances or to overcome inadequacies.     

A survey of dynamic scheduling in manufacturing systems

In most real-world environments, scheduling is an ongoing reactive process where the presence of a variety of unexpected disruptions is usually inevitable, and continually forces reconsideration and revision of pre-established schedules. Many of the approaches developed to solve the problem of static scheduling are often impractical in real-world environments, and the near-optimal schedules with respect to the estimated data may become obsolete when they are released to the shop floor. This paper outlines the limitations of the static approaches to scheduling in the presence of real-time information and presents a number of issues that have come up in recent years on dynamic scheduling. The paper defines the problem of dynamic scheduling and provides a review of the state-of-the-art of currently developing research on dynamic scheduling. The principles of several dynamic scheduling techniques, namely, heuristics, meta-heuristics, multi-agent systems, and other artificial intelligence techniques are described in detail, followed by a discussion and comparison of their potential.     

Product-based and resource-based heterarchical approaches for dynamic FMS scheduling

Two fundamental approaches can be adopted for heterarchical scheduling of flexible manufacturing systems: resource-based scheduling or product-based scheduling. The first part of this paper defines the basic concepts of these two methods (modeling, structure design methodology, communication protocols). The second describes the specific advantages and drawbacks of these two approaches using the results provided to illustrate the discussion. The final section considers a real implementation of the product-based heterarchical philosophy.
