After discussing previously published research in the field and highlighting the current gaps, it introduces new models developed by the authors with the goal of reducing costs and increasing productivity and effectiveness in the manufacturing industry. The new models address the increasing complexity of manufacturing networks, due for example to the adoption of flexible manufacturing systems that involve automated material handling systems, robots, numerically controlled machine tools, and automated inspection stations, while also considering the uncertainty and stochastic nature of automated equipment such as AGVs. The book discusses and provides solutions to important issues concerning the use of AGVs in the manufacturing industry, including material flow optimization with AGVs, programming manufacturing systems equipped with AGVs, reliability models, the reliability of AGVs, routing under uncertainty, and risks involved in AGV-based transportation. The clear style and straightforward descriptions of problems and their solutions make the book an excellent resource for graduate students. Moreover, thanks to its practice-oriented approach, the novelty of the findings and the contemporary topic it reports on, the book offers new stimulus for researchers and practitioners in the broad field of production engineering. 410 0$aStudies in Systems, Decision and Control,$x2198-4182 ;$v20 606 $aComputational intelligence 606 $aRobotics 606 $aAutomation 606 $aIndustrial engineering 606 $aProduction engineering 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aComputational Intelligence$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T11014 606 $aRobotics and Automation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T19020 606 $aIndustrial and Production Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T22008 606 $aArtificial Intelligence$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21000 615 0$aComputational intelligence. 615 0$aRobotics. 615 0$aAutomation. 615 0$aIndustrial engineering. 615 0$aProduction engineering. 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 14$aComputational Intelligence. 615 24$aRobotics and Automation. 615 24$aIndustrial and Production Engineering. 615 24$aArtificial Intelligence. 676 $a006.3 676 $a620 676 $a629.892 676 $a670 700 $aFazlollahtabar$b Hamed$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0720818 702 $aSaidi-Mehrabad$b Mohammad$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299679903321 996 $aAutonomous Guided Vehicles$92520938 997 $aUNINA
