An Algorithm to Minimize Average Service Completion Time for the Group Controller of Multi-Car Elevator Systems
Recently, multi-car elevator (MCE) system has captured attention as an effective mean for the improvement of transportation capability in a high-rise building. The MCE has two or more cars in one shaft. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for group controllers of MCE system, and show the effectiveness of our algorithm through computer simulation.
