The Location Routing Problem (LRP), Automatic Guided Vehicle (AGV), and Uncertainty Planner Facility (UPF) in Facility Location Problems (FLP) have been critical. This research proposed the role of LRP in Intelligence AGV Location–Routing Problem (IALRP) and energy-consuming impact in CMS. The goal of problem minimization dispatching opening cost and the cost of AGV trucking. We set up multi-objective programming. To solve the model, we utilized and investigate the Imperialist Competitor Algorithm (ICA) with Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS). It is shown that the ICAVNS algorithm is high quality effects for the integrated LRP in AGVs and comparison, with the last researches, the sensitivity analysis, and numerical examples imply the validity and good convexity of the purposed model according to the cost minimization.

Abstract
Automated guided vehicle system (AGVS) is traditionally used in manufacturing and warehousing. Especially, AGVS has many applications in flexible manufacturing system (FMS) (see, e.g., Ganesharajah, Hall, & Sriskandarajah, 1998; Seo & Egbelu, 1999;Vosniakos & Mamalis, (1990). Agents are event-driven ...

Automated guided vehicle system (AGVS) is traditionally used in manufacturing and warehousing. Especially, AGVS has many applications in flexible manufacturing system (FMS) (see, e.g., Ganesharajah, Hall, & Sriskandarajah, 1998; Seo & Egbelu, 1999;Vosniakos & Mamalis, (1990). Agents are event-driven objects that can integrant in automated manufacturing environments to control certain tasks. In this paper a set of agents (a multi-agent system) is introduced to control an automated manufacturing environment. The studied problem can be modeled as a job shop where the jobs have to transported between machines by AGVs. This article introduces based on a disjunctive graph to modulate the joint scheduling problem and for machines and AGVs scheduling. The objective is to minimize the make span. Some case studies were used to show the effectiveness of simulation in solving these problems

Abstract
Predicting the results of sports matches is interesting to many, from fans to punters. It is also interesting as a research problem, in part due to its difficulty, because the result of a sports match is dependent on many factors, such as the morale of a team (or a player), skills, current score, etc. ...

Predicting the results of sports matches is interesting to many, from fans to punters. It is also interesting as a research problem, in part due to its difficulty, because the result of a sports match is dependent on many factors, such as the morale of a team (or a player), skills, current score, etc. So even for sports experts, it is very hard to predict the exact results of sports matches. This research discusses using a machine learning approach, Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), to predict the outcomes of one week, specifically applied to the Iran Pro League (IPL) 2013-2014 football matches. The data obtained from the past matches in the seven last leagues are used to make better predictions for the future matches. Results showed that neural networks have a remarkable ability to predict the results of football match results.
