Abstract

Recently, in the problem of multi-order processing in logistics warehouses, multi-pickup systems are changing from the form in which workers walk around the warehouse to the form in which goods come to workers. These changes are shortening the time to process multiple orders and increasing production. This study considered the sequence problem of which warehouse the items to be loaded on each truck come first and which items to be loaded first when loading multiple pallet-unit goods on multiple trucks in an industrial smart logistics automation warehouse. To solve this problem efficiently, we use the mutant algorithm, which combines the GA algorithm and ACO algorithm, and compare with original system.
