A new heuristic to solve the one-warehouse N-retailer problem
We deal with a multi-echelon inventory system in which one warehouse supplies an item to multiple retailers. Customer demand arrives at each retailer at a constant rate. The retailers replenish their inventories from the warehouse which in turn orders from an outside supplier. It is assumed that shortages are not allowed and lead times are negligible. These distribution/inventory systems are en...
متن کاملA new heuristic procedure to solve the Traveling Salesman problem
This paper presents a heuristic technique that uses the Wang Recurrent Neural Network with the "Winner Takes All" principle to solve the Traveling Salesman Problem. When the Wang Neural Network presents solutions for the Assignment Problem with all constraints satisfied, the "Winner Takes All" principle is applied to the values in the Neural Network’s decision variables, with the additional con...
متن کاملWarehouse-Retailer Network Design Problem
In this paper, we study the distribution network design problem integrating transportation and infinite horizon multiechelon inventory cost function. We consider the trade-off between inventory cost, direct shipment cost, and facility location cost in such a system. The problem is to determine how many warehouses to set up, where to locate them, how to serve the retailers using these warehouses...
متن کاملA New Approach to Solve N-Queen Problem with Parallel Genetic Algorithm
Over the past few decades great efforts were made to solve uncertain hybrid optimization problems. The n-Queen problem is one of such problems that many solutions have been proposed for. The traditional methods to solve this problem are exponential in terms of runtime and are not acceptable in terms of space and memory complexity. In this study, parallel genetic algorithms are proposed to solve...
