Abstract
Shuttle-based automated storage systems are blooming in modern companies as well as research interest in these systems due to their high storage density, flexibility, and short cycle time. This study aims to introduce a novel design framework exploring different layout configurations affecting system performance under three main dimensions: racks, material handling vehicles, and buffer areas. This taxonomy supports the definition of a standard notation and increases the awareness of future industrial and academic research regarding variant design configurations. A review of the literature reveals the state-of-art and existing gaps.
