摘要: By integrating the vehicle tracking system, discrete-event simulation algorithm, and evolutionary optimization we developed HKCONSIM-Realtime, a decision-support platform created specifically for handling ready-mixed concrete operations. This is capable of (1) positions trucks monitoring motion status deliveries in real time, (2) transforming records into data that provide updated input to simulation, (3) optimizing operations logistics production based on system using most current data. paper presents an overview design development hardware software modules, flow processing throughout role providing interactive, effective support human operator attain cost efficiency. Case studies are given demonstrate functionality application prototype system. Key wo...
