Systematic Development of an Agent-Based Approach for Mobile Multi-robot Order Picking
摘要
This paper describes an agent-based approach addressing the unique challenges of mobile multi-robot order picking in the logistics sector. Given the significant growth in the courier, express, and parcel service market, there’s an increasing need for systems that not only cope with a rising demand but also adapt to the dynamic logistics environment. This study introduces enhancements to an Agent-Oriented Software Engineering methodology, focussing on information-related aspects that are of increasing importance in the era of Industry 4.0. By systematically developing a Multi-agent System that employs a decentralized control strategy, this research offers a scalable solution to optimize multi-robot tasks in warehousing and order fulfillment processes.
