Abstract

This paper proposes a new kind of visual method for man-on-board order-picking in automated storage/retrieval system (AS/RS) using network technology and panel pc. By using the storage assignment policies and sequencing algorithms, we can improve the performance of the man-on-board order-picking method, increasing the throughput capacity of AS/RS. After introducing the framework of this new method, we present an analytical model and analyze the system performance for the case of using dynamic job inserting.
