For this purpose, a material flow simulation study extended by an electricity price simulation has been executed to examine possible cost scenarios. Our findings support the notion of a potential for further research in new optimization models involving energy procurement as well as energy trading options}, subject = {Materialflussplanung}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ClausHerrmann, author = {Claus, Thorsten and Herrmann, Frank}, title = {Simulation als betriebliche Entscheidungshilfe}, series = {Erg{\"a}nzungsband zu den Proceedings zur 14.

Following the general trend of decentralisation of control structure in the Industry 4.0 paradigm, this paper analyses the application of auction algorithms to solve the robot task assignment problem. We focus on the use of mobile robots in production environments with a high level of uncertainty which places hight demand on the flexibility of the online scheduling architecture. A sequential single-item (SSI) auction algorithm is validated for a real-world use case where multiple mobile robots supply car bodies to manual rework stations in a paint shop application using simulation. The optimization objective of such an algorithm is discussed in regards to the examined use case.}, language = {en} }
