Automated Storage and Retrieval System(AS/RS)has become a sign of enterprise
production automation and management information.The design,optimization and
simulation of AS/RS has become a key in modem logistics technologies.This thesis
analyzed the facilities planning and design of AS/RS firstly.Then,this thesis studied
the optimal cells distribution strategies and the storage and retrieval path optimization of Storage and Retrieval Vehicle(RGV).Finally,this thesis studied the simulation of AS/RS on the basis of Flexsim simulation soft-ware.
