Integrated Optimization of Automated Warehouse Operations and Last-Mile Transport for Differentiated On-Demand Delivery

The paper introduces an integrated optimization framework that links automated warehouse operations with last‑mile multi‑modal transport for differentiated on‑demand delivery. It employs a deep reinforcement learning approach—MORM‑AGDQN for warehouse scheduling and MRMH‑HCVRP for external routing—to balance service level, cost, and demand. The results demonstrate significant performance gains, including a 100 % on‑time delivery rate, a 29.3 % reduction in average last‑mile delivery time, a 46.4 % cut in total transportation distance, and a high‑priority service rate exceeding 92 % while maintaining cost‑customer satisfaction balance.
