Development of a design methodology for warehousing systems: hierarchical framework
نویسندگان
چکیده
We will present a progress report on our effort to develop a science-based design methodology for warehousing systems. In particular, we will discuss the hierarchical structure of our design procedure. This includes the decisions and parameters used in the master model, the various sub-models, and the decision and data interaction between the various levels in the hierarchy. We will present several sub-models that are specific for a particular function or material handling equipment. Computational results of the application of the sub-model for modular storage drawers will also be shared.
