Abstract
A method of sequencing loads in an automated distribution system having sources, at least one destination, a collector having successive nodes, and a control system to process customer orders. The method includes, for an analyzed node, injection including, to decide whether a load C having a sequential order number of destination for a given destination can be injected into the collector: creating, among the loads to be collected by at least one node downstream to the analyzed node, a list LIof loads having an order number of destination lower than the given order number of destination and a list LIof loads that are interposed between a load of the list LIand the collector; determining whether 'the list LIis empty' and/or 'the list LIis not empty and the list LIis empty'; if one of the two conditions is verified, then injection of the load C.
