摘要
A recent tendency has been to suppress excessive capital investment in logistics centers. There have been many cases where computer-based logistics systems have been introduced in parallel with new equipment to handle the control of such equipment, as well as the unified processing of shipping, loading, unloading, and inventory management, etc. However, capital investment has recently been minimized and the introduction of computer-based management systems which retain tasks that may be achieved using manpower has not been unusual. The requirements on such systems to control equipment optimally are reduced, but the need has arisen for computer-based systems to assist the smooth operation of tasks performed using manpower. In this research, genetic algorithms (GAs) are applied to the design of plans for shipment packing, loading and dispatch occurring at logistics centers. A system supporting decision-making by workers through the design and presentation of efficient plans was formulated and implemented.
