Abstract

Online 3-dimensional bin packing problem (O3D-BPP) is getting renewed prominence due to the industrial automation brought by Industry 4.0. However, due to limited attention in the past and its challenging nature, a good approximate technique is in scarcity as compared to 1D or 2D problems. Present disclosure provides system and method that considers real-time O3D-BPP of cuboidal boxes with partial information (look-ahead) in an automated robotic sorting center. System presents two rolling-horizon mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) cum-heuristic based algorithms wherein a framework is provided that adapts and improves performance of BP heuristics by utilizing information in an online setting with look-ahead.
