dc.description.abstract | Warehouse operations have a significant influence on total logistics costs and supply
chain network. As a result, they should be optimized in a reasonable way to reduce the
detrimental impact they may cause. The goal of this paper is to rebuild a cold
warehouse, especially ice cream storage, in order to maximize their operating process. The ABC analysis approach is used to categorize warehouse products based on their
frequency and weight. Then, based on the demand relationship, the Quadratic
Assignment Problem is used to assign storage locations for products to reduce total
distance for transporting them in the warehouse. A mathematical model is also
suggested to aid in batching orders, and both before and after utilizing the model, the
distance to pick orders will be estimated. Through the proposed model, all received
orders will be divided into batches to minimize the distance traveled. To solve the
model, Python and CPlex were used as the optimization solvers for small, medium, and large problem instances and the results | en_US |
