Abstract

To improve the efficiency and safety of automated warehouse, a new scheme is proposed to solve the problem of space allocation considering path planning, different weight as well as the inbound and outbound frequency of cargoes. First of all, the storage location assignment problem was induced as a constraint multi-objective optimisation model whose aims are minimising the gravity centre of shelf and the frequency of inbound and outbound. Then, multi-objective artificial bee colony algorithm and multi-objective particle swarm optimisation algorithm were proposed and the performance was tested on the benchmark functions as well as the problem of storage space allocation. The results show that the proposed strategies effectively solve the problem of optimisation of storage space allocation and realise the efficient operation of the warehouse.
