They consider the structure of the warehouse and the storage strategy to minimize the length of routes when picking. They developed a heuristic algorithm to solve this problem. The output of the study is a proposal of a new method of ordering batches and subsequent tracing of picking these batches, which they tested using computer simulation of four scenarios considering the expedition of 785 to 1562 orders consisting of 1,559 to 3,168 items. They state that the method proposed by them will lead to an average reduction of the picking route by 34.7%. Authors Derhami, Smith and Gue (2020) discuss the design of an optimal pallet warehouse layout based on simulations. They deal with the determination of the number, width and length of alleys and the number of intersections. Their goal was to design a layout of warehouse aisles that would ensure a compromise between handling costs and the efficiency of storage space. To achieve this compromise, they developed a simulation using an optimization algorithm. They applied this algorithm in the food industry company and found that it saves 10% of logistics costs associated with the operation of the
