Facilities design and material handling are a central theme in Industrial Engineering. Computer aided facility design was an active area of research and development in the 1960's, but relatively little real progress has been made since then. This paper describes a contemporary research program focused squarely on the issue of computer aided facilities design, using contemporary computing platforms and software tools. Significant progress has been made in developing design tools for automated guided vehicle systems (AGVS). In designing an engineering workstation for AGVS applications the authors used MS-DOS based machines and AutoCAD
