Abstract

In order to improve the operation efficiency in airport freight station, the task scheduling problem of freight station is studied in this paper. Based on the mathematical model of the whole system, the integer encoding and continuous encoding methods are proposed to describe the sequence of tasks, then the parallel artificial bee colony algorithm is used to optimize the tasks set. The simulation results show that proposed improved artificial bee colony algorithm based on the two encoding methods are effective, and compared with the traditional bee colony algorithm, the parallel algorithm can reduce the optimization time and improve the optimization efficiency without affecting the optimization results.
