Tour Scheduling with Skill Based Costs
We present a new formulation of the tour scheduling problem with assignment costs that are a function of employee capabilities. The objective also incorporates a quadratic term to encourage compact shifts and equal interday shift lengths for each employee. The problem is solved using a tabu-like probabilistic local search algorithm. The algorithm is applied in two phases with employee conflicts...
متن کاملAn Integrated Aggregate Production Planning Model with Two-Phase Production System and Maintenance Costs
Aggregate production planning (APP) is one of the most important issues carried out in manufacturing environments which seeks efficient planning, scheduling and coordination of all production activities that optimizes the company's objectives. In this paper, we develop a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model for an integrated aggregate production planning system with closed loop supply ...
متن کاملAdministrative Costs and Production Efficiency
Economists providing policy advice often justify recommendations of government non-interference in the allocation of resources between production sectors and free trade with reference to the Diamond and Mirrlees efficiency theorem. However, such policy advice may be misleading when, as is in general the case, administrative costs effectively restrict the set of feasible tax instruments availabl...
متن کاملLamb Production Costs: Analyses of Composition and Elasticities Analysis of Lamb Production Costs
Since lamb is a commodity, producers cannot control the price of the product they sell. Therefore, managing production costs is a necessity. We explored the study of elasticities as a tool for basing decision-making in sheep production, and aimed at investigating the composition and elasticities of lamb production costs, and their influence on the performance of the activity. A representative s...
متن کاملThe impacts of congestion on commercial vehicle tour characteristics and costs
Analytical modeling and insights, numerical experiments, and real-world tour data are used to understand the impact of congestion on urban tour characteristics, carriers’ costs, and distance/time traveled. This paper categorizes tours into three classes based on their tour efficiency and variable costs structure. Travel time/distance between customers and depot is found to be a crucial factor t...
