Simulation-based truck dispatching for minerals transportation in open-pit mines

In this project, we replicate the dispatching operation of mineral transportation trucks using a discrete-event simulation model, then we use the data generated by the simulation model to train an AI algorithm to dispatch trucks to loading/unloading shovels. The use of AI in this scheduling problem will improve the system’s performance
