The dynamic problem involves selecting a static layout for each period and then deciding whether to change to a different layout in the next period. If the shifting costs are relatively low, we would tend to shift or change the layout configuration more often to suit the changed material-handling flow. The reverse is true for high shifting costs where we would avoid relocations to avoid the associated shifting or rearrangement costs.
In the following thesis, the authors have cited some solutions to solve this problem using different methods
