Abstract: A release logic system for releasing cartons into a fulfillment system is described. In an example implementation, a release logic engine may receive carton data representing a set of cartons and indicating picks for each the set of cartons. The release logic engine may determine a score for a carton of the set of cartons based on a location of a first pick of the carton in a pick-to-cart area of a fulfillment center. In some implementations, the release logic engine may assign the carton to a cart adapted to transport cartons based on the score determined for the carton, and may induct the carton into the fulfillment center for the first pick using the cart.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an integrated photonic chip structure for universal quantum walk simulation which combines the multiphoton source that can generate the spatially entangled multi-photon state and the linear optical network that can implement the unitary transformation, and establishes mapping between on-chip spatial-entangled multi-photon state and quantum walk state and mapping between on-chip linear optical unitary transformation and the evolution process of multi-particle quantum walk. By manipulating the spatially entangled multi-photon state generated via the multi-photon sources and the optical unitary transformation implemented via the universal linear optical networks, the chip structure can implement universal quantum walk simulation with the control over all parameters of multiple-particle quantum walks including such as evolution Hamiltonian, evolution time, initial evolution state and particle properties (i.e., particle indistinguishability and particle exchange symmetry).
