Control system for logistics warehouses

The present invention provides a control device for a logistics warehouse that can reduce the computational load when calculating the transport route for transporting goods, even when the transport lane has multiple lanes. [Solution] The route calculation unit 13 assumes, for calculation purposes, that the lower lane 21A and the upper lane 21B are consolidated into a single receiving lane 21. In this case, even if there are multiple lanes 21A and 21B, the route calculation unit 13 can employ a method of calculating the transport route for a single receiving lane 21. That is, the route calculation unit 13 calculates the transport route information based on constraints that allow the goods 150 to be stored from a single receiving lane 21 to the second and third levels. As a result, the route calculation unit 13 can perform calculations with constraints that reproduce the operation when using the lower lane 21A and the upper lane 21B, even though there is only one receiving lane 21.

Enhanced Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and / or Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) for environmentally sustainable routing over the internet

ActiveUS12647354B2TransmissionPathPingPath computation element
A system and method are provided for using a green score to improve environmental sustainability for routing traffic between and or / within autonomous systems (ASs). Node-level green scores are calculated based on environmental information of the nodes (e.g., locations, router type and electrical consumption, and location-dependent environmental impact of electrical production), and AS-level green scores are based on the node-level green score from the respective ASs. For intra-AS routing, node and adjacency labels are pushed to a headend path computation element client (PCC), and the label switched path (LSP) is determined based on the node-level green scores and the node and adjacency labels. For inter-AS routing, the AS having a better AS-level green score is preferred, when the routes through the respective ASs are equal-cost multi-path (ECMP) routes. Exit nodes between ASs are selected based on the node-level green scores.
