Performance Evaluation of Shuttle-based Storage and Retrieval Systems Using Discrete-time Queueing Network Models

by Martin Epp

Shuttle-based storage and retrieval systems (SBS/RSs) are an important part of today's warehouses. In this work, a new approach is developed that can be applied to model different configurations of SBS/RSs. The approach is based on the modeling of SBS/RSs as discrete-time open queueing networks and yields the complete probability distributions of the performance measures.
