Abstract: A parts placement calculation system comprises parts selection means 18 for selecting parts with the highest parts point value, store selection means 20 for selecting a store with the highest store point value, and placement determination means 22 for determining whether or not parts can be placed in a store based on a predetermined constraint condition for placing the parts. When the placement determination means 22 determines that parts cannot be placed in a store, the store is deleted from a list of placement possible stores, and then the store selection means 20 is activated again. When the placement determination means 22 determines that parts can be placed in a store, a parts area for placing the target parts are determined within the store. Then, after the parts are deleted from the list of parts to be placed, the parts selection means 18 is reactivated.
