[BOOK][B] Design and control of efficient order picking processes

T Le-Duc - 2005 - repub.eur.nl
Within a logistics chain, products need to be physically moved from one location to another,
from manufacturers to end users. During this process, commonly products are buffered or …

A survey on performance analysis of warehouse carousel systems

N Litvak, M Vlasiou - Statistica Neerlandica, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
This paper gives an overview of recent research on the performance evaluation and design
of carousel systems. We discuss picking strategies for problems involving one carousel …

On queues with service and interarrival times depending on waiting times

OJ Boxma, M Vlasiou - Queueing Systems, 2007 - Springer
We consider an extension of the standard G/G/1 queue, described by the equation
WD=\maxmax\,{0,B-A+YW\}, where ℙ Y= 1= p and ℙ Y=− 1= 1− p. For p= 1 this model …

The impact of batch retrievals on throughput performance of a carousel system serviced by a storage and retrieval machine

JA Pazour, RD Meller - International Journal of Production Economics, 2013 - Elsevier
A carousel system is an example of an automated storage and retrieval system that is used
in distribution centers and manufacturing facilities. We analyze the impact batch retrieval …

A two-station queue with dependent preparation and service times

M Vlasiou, IJBF Adan, OJ Boxma - European Journal of Operational …, 2009 - Elsevier
We discuss a single-server multi-station alternating queue where the preparation times and
the service times are auto-and cross-correlated. We examine two cases. In the first case …

Saturated particle filter: almost sure convergence and improved resampling

PM Stano, Z Lendek, R Babuška - Automatica, 2013 - Elsevier
Nonlinear stochastic dynamical systems are widely used to model physical processes. In
many practical applications, the state variables are defined on a compact set of the state …

On a class of reflected AR (1) processes

O Boxma, M Mandjes, J Reed - Journal of Applied Probability, 2016 - cambridge.org
In this paper we study a reflected AR (1) process, ie a process (Zn) n obeying the recursion
Zn+ 1= max {aZn+ Xn, 0}, with (Xn) na sequence of independent and identically distributed …

Stochastic analysis of an automated storage and retrieval system with multiple in‐the‐aisle pick positions

J Liu, H Liao, JA White Jr - Naval Research Logistics (NRL), 2021 - Wiley Online Library
An automated storage and retrieval system with multiple in‐the‐aisle pick positions (MIAPP‐
AS/RS) is often used to support case‐picking occurring at floor and mezzanine levels. In this …

Optimal picking of large orders in carousel systems

N Litvak - Operations Research Letters, 2006 - Elsevier
A carousel is an automated ring-shaped warehousing system that rotates either direction
bringing items to a picker. We obtain the limiting behavior of the shortest rotation time and …

Queueing analysis of the replenishment of multiple in-the-aisle pick positions

J Liu, H Liao, JA White - IISE Transactions, 2021 - Taylor & Francis
A case-picking operation with Multiple In-The-Aisle Pick Positions (MIAPP) is modeled as an
M/G/1/N queueing system. Cases are picked manually from pallets located on the bottom …
