SIMULATION OPTIMIZATION FOR ANALYSIS OF SUSTAINABLE LOGISTICS SYSTEMS

ABSTRACT This work analyzed different logistics structures under a sustainable perspective. It wasdeveloped a discrete event simulation model associated with optimization algorithm to evaluate the best combinations of the model. Besides, the comparison between the simulation optimization and a multicriteria method was performed. The simulation software Ururau, in which a model with optimization algorithm allowed testing different variables, was applied in order to find the best answer to the issue. Results showed that a connection of direct proportionality between variables of transport time, ...
