Optimal Storage Assignment in Automatic Warehousing Systems
TL;DR: It is shown that significant reductions in crane travel time and distance are obtainable from turnover-based rules, and these improvements can be directly translated into increased throughput capacity for existing systems, and may be used to alter the design of proposed systems.

Order-Picking in a Rectangular Warehouse: A Solvable Case of the Traveling Salesman Problem
TL;DR: This paper addresses the problem of order-picking in a rectangular warehouse that contains crossovers only at the ends of aisles by presenting an algorithm for picking an order in minimum time.
Warehouse design and control: framework and literature review
TL;DR: A reference framework and a classification of warehouse design and control problems and the need for design oriented studies is emphasized, as opposed to the strong analysis oriented research on isolated subproblems that seems to be dominant in the current literature.

Warehouse design and control: Framework and literature review
B. Rouwenhorst,B. Reuter,V. Stockrahm,van Gjjan Geert-Jan Houtum,Ronald Mantel,Whm Henk Zijm +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a reference framework and a classification of warehouse design and control problems based on this framework, and emphasize the need for design oriented studies, as opposed to strong analysis oriented research on isolated subproblems that seems to be dominant in the current literature.

Travel-Time Models for Automated Storage/Retrieval Systems
Yavuz A. Bozer,John A. White +1 more
TL;DR: Travel-time models are developed for automated storage/retrieval (AS/R) machines that travel simultaneously horizontally and vertically as it moves along a storage aisle for randomized storage conditions.
