Track: Industry 4.0

Abstract

Simulation is becoming a need for the industries nowadays as the businesses are required to take critical decisions frequently. Simulation has various applications in many areas. The current research focuses on simulating the warehouse situation. A simulation model of the warehouse is built by using Witness 2021 simulation software. The model is also validated by comparing it to a real-life situation. After running the model for a certain time, the statistics have been collected for the model. This will help to understand the existing situation for the warehouse. Then the efforts are made to reduce the queues. For that what-if- scenarios are generated. Based on these scenarios, the experiments have been conducted in the Witness experimenter. The results for these experiments are then analyzed and the best results with alternative solutions are provided.
