An Integrated Design Algorithm for Detailed Layouts Based on the Contour Distance
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents an integrated design approach for the facility layout problem. It develops a method for the concurrent determination of the block layout, the locations of departmental input and output (I/O) points using the contour distances between the I/O points, and the material flow paths between the I/O points. Results of computational experiments show that the performance of this integrated algorithm compares favorably with those of algorithms using a sequential approach.
