Abstract
In the warehouse, the typical logistics software is the warehouse control system (WCS). WCS provides an integrated interface to a broad range of material handling equipment. It is able to manage and control equipment in the warehouse. We analysed key functions and limitations of an existing WCS and suggest a new architecture for the WCS. To address such requirements and limitations, a new architecture and functions of WCS/HMI-ECS are suggested. In this paper we introduce a pilot system according to defined WCS/HMI-ECS architecture.
