Abstract
We describe a problem of storing products in carousels that are grouped in pods of two. Each pod is served by one operator. The aim is to minimize the long-run average rotational time per retrieval operation. We formulate the problem as a new type of nonlinear partitioning problem and discuss several heuristic solution procedures.
