Abstract
In order to redesign an existing AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) transportation system in a port terminal, it is needed to adequately evaluate and analyze the system. For this purpose, this paper proposes the design support methodology for an actual transportation system. In the methodology, an optimal design methodology that has proposed by the authors is used to take into account bottlenecks in the transportation system. These bottlenecks are the traffic congestions caused by the AGVs. Also, this paper describes a logic tree based on the idea of the MECE (Mutually Exclusive, Collectively Exhaustive) in order to ease the bottlenecks.
