Abstract
An information processing device for controlling a package handling system includes a first interface connected to a first logistics equipment, a second interface connected to a second logistics equipment, and a processor. The processor acquires flow rate data output by sensors of the first logistics equipment via the first interface, changes a format of the acquired flow rate data to a common format, acquires equipment information regarding the second logistics equipment via the second interface, changes a format of the equipment information to the common format, and generates a display screen showing flow rates at different points of the first logistics equipment, the equipment information, and a congestion state of the system, update the display screen after performing a simulation of the system, and issue a control signal in the first or second format to apply a change in an operating characteristic of the first or second logistics equipment.
