摘要
Cross docking is a novel approach in material handling which can reduce inventories, lead times, and customer response time. In this strategy, products are unloaded from inbound trucks, sorted and categorized based on their characteristics, moved and loaded onto outbound trucks for delivery to demand points in distribution network. In this paper we address simulated annealing algorithm (SA) to find the best sequence of inbound and outbound trucks, so that the objective, minimizing the make span, can be satisfied. Furthermore, the efficiency of applied parameters is evaluated by Taguchi plan of parameter settings.
