Project Title
Dynamic Batch Delivery Scheduling System for Autonomous Mobile Robot Fleet Operations
Project Description
Micron’s Fab 10 facility uses a fleet of Autonomous Mobile Robots to complete internal parts-delivery requests across the site. Currently, warehouse technicians determine whether multiple delivery requests should be grouped into a single robot mission or released individually, based on factors such as delivery priority, destination proximity, robot availability, and estimated return timing.
This project focuses on developing a dynamic scheduling system that evaluates the full queue of pending delivery requests in real time. The system will determine whether a request should be grouped with other compatible requests, released immediately to the next available robot, or held briefly for a returning robot. The goal is to improve delivery scheduling decisions and reduce overall fleet-wide delivery time through data-driven optimization.
Objective of the Project
The objective of this project is to design, develop, and validate a dynamic scheduling model that improves Autonomous Mobile Robot fleet utilization, reduces delivery waiting time, and enables more consistent decision-making for internal parts delivery.
Opportunities to be Offered for Full Time Employment
Successful completion of the internship may provide the candidate with opportunities to be considered for future full time employment, subject to business needs and individual performance.
Project Scope
Study the current manual dispatching and delivery grouping process.
Identify relevant data inputs, operational constraints, and decision factors.
Formulate the scheduling and delivery grouping problem into an optimization model.
Develop and test a real-time scheduling algorithm.
Compare algorithm performance against current dispatching outcomes.
Document the methodology, results, and recommendations for future implementation.
Learning Opportunities
Gain exposure to smart manufacturing and warehouse automation in a semiconductor environment.
Apply optimization, scheduling, routing, and data analysis concepts to a real business problem.
Learn how Autonomous Mobile Robot fleet operations are planned and evaluated.
Develop practical experience in modelling, algorithm development, simulation, and performance benchmarking.
Build stakeholder communication skills through project reviews and final presentation.
Gain exposure to Artificial Intelligence-enabled workflows, Generative Artificial Intelligence, Code Assist tools, and Large Language Models where relevant to research, analysis, documentation, and solution development.
