Applying ant algorithm to the automatic control system of freight load

Abstract

The purpose of the present is to develop an automatic control system of freight load, thereby not only reducing transportation costs but also improving the delivery ability of schedulers. Ant algorithm was employed to perform the optimal calculation of vehicle route to lever a higher load capacity of each truck and meet the requirement of the operator. While optimizing the route, the application of the ant algorithm needs to balance the vehicle capacity of each route. The proposed system has been realized and validated the system performance of vehicle dispatch that can reduce the logistics cost. In conclusion, the realized system by ant algorithm can meet the operator's requirements.
