Heuristic algorithm for ready-mixed concrete plant scheduling with multiple mixers
Abstract
In this study, the problem of integration of ready-mixed concrete (RMC) production scheduling and truck and pump dispatching in an RMC plant with multiple mixers is focused upon. A time-space network model, which combines RMC production and vehicle dispatching, is proposed. A heuristic algorithm with eight sets of conjoint priority rules for production scheduling, truck and pump dispatching, and mixer scheduling is developed to solve the...
