Abstract

In recent years, with the development of modern manufacturing and logistics industry, the development of warehousing management has become more and more rapid, and the status of the logistics industry is getting higher and higher. Therefore, the requirements for warehousing management are getting higher and higher. In this paper, the problem of the allocation strategy of the warehouse in the automated warehouse is discussed, and the optimization model of the multi - target location allocation is established to improve the efficiency of the warehousing and keep the shelf stability and the similar neighbor storage as the optimization target. Then the weighting coefficient method is used to transform the multi - objective optimization model into a single-objective optimization model. Finally, the IWO (invasive weed optimization) is used to solve the single target optimization model, and the simulation experiment is carried out using Matlab software to get the new layout. It can be seen from the simulation results that the results show that IWO can effectively solve the problem of optimal allocation of cargo warehouse
