E-commerce supply chains with considerations of cyber-security: Should governments play a role?

Suyuan Luo et al.

Summary: This paper analyzes the cyber-security issues in e-commerce supply chains and explores whether governments should impose penalty schemes. The findings suggest that implementing penalty schemes can be beneficial to social welfare when the government values consumer surplus. The study also reveals that the benefit-to-cost ratio of security enhancing technologies is a critical factor in determining the optimal penalty level. One important insight is that government penalty schemes on cyber-security may do more harm than good, but if implemented, the government should impose the heaviest possible fine.

Robot Scheduling for Mobile-Rack Warehouses: Human-Robot Coordinated Order Picking Systems

Zheng Wang et al.

Summary: Intelligent part-to-picker systems have become popular for agile order fulfillment in various industries, raising challenges in designing work schedules and operational scheduling problems. This study focuses on finding suitable robot schedules considering the fluctuations in human pickers' working states, using a dynamic program model and an ADP-based solution approach. The model, calibrated with data from a leading e-commerce company in China, demonstrates high-quality solutions that reduce picking times by 10% compared to traditional methods.

Picker Routing in AGV-Assisted Order Picking Systems

Maximilian Loffler et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the routing algorithms for AGV-assisted order picking in parallel-aisle warehouses. It proposes a dynamic programming routine with polynomial runtime for fixed picking order sequences and offers a heuristic for cases where order sequencing is a decision. The use of AGVs has shown to significantly improve order-fulfillment processes in warehouses.
