  • Patent number: 11168564
    Abstract: A method for assigning a set of tasks to a plurality of mining machines, said machines being arranged to be driven between positions for performing tasks is provided. The method includes defining a first set of constraints to be fulfilled finding an overall solution fulfilling the first set of constraints by solving each constraint as a sub-problem, a solution to at least one sub-problem being dependent on the solution of at least one other sub-problem; the overall solution fulfilling the first set of constraints being an overall solution where a first of said sub-problems is validated by solutions of others of the sub-problems, and assigning tasks to the machines according to the determined validated overall solution, wherein tasks are arranged to be carried out at least partially overlapping in time by the mining machines.

  • Publication number: 20190043141
    Abstract: A method for assigning a set of tasks to a plurality of drill rigs, said tasks including drilling of holes by said plurality of drill rigs. The method includes defining a first set of constraints to be fulfilled when assigning tasks to said plurality of drill rigs finding an overall solution fulfilling said first set of constraints by solving each constraint as a sub-problem, a solution to at least one sub-problem being dependent on the solution of at least one other sub-problem; said overall solution fulfilling said first set of constraints being determined when a solution to a first of said sub-problems is validated by solutions of others of said sub-problems, and assigning tasks to said plurality of drill rigs according to the determined validated overall solution, wherein tasks of said set of tasks are arranged to be carried out at least partially overlapping in time by said plurality of drill rigs.
