Warehouse management system

Last updated:

Abstract:

Various examples are directed to systems and methods for managing a warehouse. For example, a set of candidate routes through the warehouse may be generated based at least in part on graph data describing a plurality of nodes comprising a depot node, and a plurality of internode paths. Orders may be assigned to routes from the set of candidate routes to minimize a total duration for the routes. A set of tasks may be generated, where a first task of the set of tasks comprises a route and an order of the plurality of orders matched to the route. Tasks from the set of tasks may be assigned to picking agents to minimize a duration of the longest task from the set of tasks.
