As the practical application of mobile robot systems is increasing, decision-makers are confronted with a plethora of decisions. However, research is lagging in providing the needed academic insights and managerial guidance. The lack of a structured decision framework tailored for mobile robot system applications in warehouses can lead to complications when choosing and implementing such automation systems. This book illustrates the applications of mobile robot systems in warehouse operations including an integrated decision framework for their selection and application.
The authors first outline the characteristics of mobile robot systems which support warehouse managers in identifying, evaluating and choosing candidate systems through multiple criteria, then provide a managerial decision framework covering decisions at strategic, tactical and operational levels. This book puts special emphasis on change management and operational control of mobile robots using path planning and task allocation algorithms, as well as introducing focus areas that require particular attention to aid the efficiency and practical application of these systems, such as facility layout planning, robot fleet sizing and human-robot interaction. It is essential reading for academics and students working on digital warehousing and logistics, as well as warehousing practitioners aiming to make informed decisions.
