过去，执行各种仓库运营服务的资源选择完全由专家完成。在本文中，一个基于RFID的资源管理系统（RFID-RMS）的设计，以帮助用户选择最合适的资源使用包处理仓库操作订单检索和分析有用的知识，从一个基于案例的数据仓库解决方案，在节省时间和成本效益的方式。此外，一个纯粹的积分线性规划模型，使用分支和界限算法来定义叉车的最佳行驶距离也被开发和嵌入在拟议的系统。该系统适合在仓库运营环境中使用，通过集成射频识别（RFID）、基于案例推理（CBR）技术和叉车路径优化编程模型，提高了制定资源使用包和管理资源运营的有效性。通过在跨国物流公司GENCO配送系统中应用RFID-RMS，可以最大限度地利用仓库资源，同时大大提高工作效率。(c)2005爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
In the past, the selection of resources to execute various warehouse operation services was done solely by experts. In this paper, a RFID-based Resource Management System (RFID-RMS) is designed to help users to select the most suitable resource usage packages for handling warehouse operation orders by retrieving and analysing useful knowledge from a case-based data warehouse for solutions in both time saving and cost effective manner. In addition, a pure integral-linear programming model using a branch and bound algorithm to define the optimum travel distance of forklifts is also developed and embedded in the proposed system. The proposed system, which is suitable for usage in a warehouse operation environment, enhances the effectiveness in formulating resource usage package and managing resource operation by integrating the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), case-based reasoning (CBR) technologies and the programming model for forklift route optimization. Through applying RFID-RMS in the GENCO Distribution System, a multinational logistics company, the utilization of warehouse resources is expected to be maximized while work efficiency will be greatly enhanced.
