"Conveyor Blockages at a Food Logistics Warehouse"
Abstract
"We release the dataset used in our study of inbound conveyor congestion in a food logistics warehouse with multiple conveyor lanes feeding storage via stacker cranes. Each record captures a timestamp, an SKU identifier, the conveyor lane, and the availability of the stacker cranes, enabling replay of the arrival stream and reconstruction of congestion proxies and simulator inputs. The dataset is intended for reproducible evaluation of routing and assignment policies under capacity constraints and bursty arrivals, and for benchmarking bounded-change optimization methods that seek to reduce conveyor blockages while preserving operational constraints."
