Abstract
Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with a shortest path engine for warehouse management are described. In one embodiment, a method determines a shortest path between a first location and a second location. The method includes receiving a request for a shortest path between a first location and a second location and accessing a first data structure. The first data structure maps the first location to a first reference point and the second location to a second reference point. A shortest path between the first reference point and the second reference point is determined and the determined shortest path is returned.
