Organizations
are continuously trying to improve their competitiveness in several fields,
which can be seen in the current context of the industry 4.0. The goods
transportation inside and outside companies represents a significant fraction
of the total costs. It is a transversal problem to most business organizations.
One of such
problems is related to internal logistics, which is crucial for the performance
of companies. In fact, an accurate and efficient internal logistics system is
vital to ensure that the right materials are receipt on the right time and
place and in the right quantities. This is a problem that comprises several
thematic, such as intelligent transportations. Its advancements can result from
electro-mechanical physical devices (e.g. AGV – Automated Guided
Vehicles), or conceptual logistics systems, such as milk runs (mizusumashi) and Kanban systems. Intermediate
warehouses often support supply chains.
Simulation
is one of the techniques that are being applied in many situations in this
fourth industrial revolution, addressing problems related to transportation of
goods (or even people). It can also be complemented with optimization
techniques.
