Optimization of Elevators Dispatching by Using Genetic Algorithm in Python

This research presents a developed simulation of elevator dispatching by Python programing language. It models vertical transportation of elevator in a building with respect to the number of floors, number of elevators, and relevant elevator parameters. A control system algorithm is defined to select a specific elevator in order to service landing calls in a group system. By means of Genetic Algorithm (GA) method, elevators dispatching system is optimized. The result offers suitable condition for passengers with less waiting and service time.
