1. INTRODUCTION
Warehouse Control System (WCS) provides an integrated
interface to a broad range of material handling equipment. It
is able to collect equipment information and control
equipment in real time. The state-of-the art WCS is expected
to have versatility, integrity, information-visibility with
variety of function for supporting warehouse control and
material flow.
In this paper, we analysed key functions and limitations of
existing WCS and suggest a new architecture for WCS which
provide plug and play equipment interface and also provide
the result of communication test between pilot system and
material handling equipment using new architecture.
