Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
This course focuses on logistic concepts for designing and operating warehouses. The dimensioning of warehouses, the product allocation, the batch formation and order picker routing as well as the arising packing problems will be discussed. Furthermore, different lot-sizing problems, the corresponding model formulations, and solution concepts are being presented. The course aims to enable students to understand and solve major decision problems faced in warehousing operations and lot-sizing. Homework exercises will be used to practice the learned methods.
Assessment and permitted materials
A total of 100% can be obtained by:
- weekly homework assignments (20%; students must upload the homework examples in Moodle)
- a written midterm exam (40%) (date: April 24th, 2023)
- a written final exam (40%) (date: June 26th, 2023)The exam are planned to take place on-site and are closed book. Formulas will be provided.Cheating during an examination will be sanctioned according to the university's constitution in its current form (i.e., the entire course will not be graded but marked as cheated and counted as one attempt). Signing for another student will be counted as cheating as well (also during homework sessions).Students who want to take part in an exam are required to bring their student ID.
