On the Integrated Production, Inventory, and Distribution Routing Problem
The integrated production, inventory and distribution routing problem (PDRP) is concerned with coordinating the production, inventory and delivery operations to meet customer demand with an objective to minimize the cost. The particular PDRP that we consider in this study also involves heterogeneous transporters with non-instantaneous traveling times and many customer demand centers each with i...
متن کاملA Tabu Scatter Search Metaheuristic for the Arc Routing Problem
We consider a special routing problem which has a variety of practical applications. In a graph-theoretic context it is known as the Capacitated Chinese Postman Problem. Given an undirected network in which the demand is located on edges, the goal is to determine a least-cost schedule of routes. The route demands, which must not exceed the vehicle capacity, are serviced by a fleet of vehicles w...
متن کاملA Two-Phase Hybrid Heuristic Method for a Multi-Depot Inventory-Routing Problem
In this study, a two phase hybrid heuristic approach was proposed to solve the multi-depot multi-vehicle inventory routing problem (MDMVIRP). Inventory routing problem (IRP) is one of the major issues in the supply chain networks that arise in the context of vendor managed systems (VMI) The MDMVIRP combines inventory management and routing decision. We are given on input a fleet of homogeneous ...
متن کاملThe Scatter Search Methodology
Scatter search (SS) is an evolutionary approach for optimization. It has been applied to problems with continuous and discrete variables and with a single or multiple objectives. The success of scatter search as an optimization technique is well documented in a constantly growing number of journal articles and book chapters. This chapter first focuses on the basic scatter search framework, whic...
متن کاملBi-objectives Approach for a Multi-period Two Echelons Perishable Product Inventory-routing Problem with Production and Lateral Transshipment
In this study, a two echelons supply chain system in which a supplier is producing perishable product and distribute it to multiple customers is considered. By allowing lateral transshipment mechanism, it is also possible to deliver products to some customers in some periods in bulk, then customers using their own vehicle to transship goods between each other seeking further reduction in the ov...
