Conceptual modelling is a continuous and iterative process that is essential for simulation
projects. However, it often does not receive due consideration. In this sense, many projects …

This paper presents a flexible framework to simulate transport systems based on automated
guided vehicles (AGVs). The framework used to perform the simulation also serves to …

A large number of engineering problems involve several conflicting objectives, which today
are often solved through expensive simulation calculations. Methods based on meta …

An optimization of the production process is defined as the search for solutions with
