چکیده
This paper discusses a new way to solve the Vehicles Routing Problem (VRP) of logistics with the use of Taboo Search Algorithms (TSA) and optimize the new way and the distribution center based on Genetic Algorithms (GA). This study focuses on the incorporating of sugar industry and Milled Rice distribution center management in Thailand for the export channel. This provides a systematic and framework to solve the cost minimization problem of sugar transports and Milled Rice transports from the mills to a seaports. The results demonstrate, there is not a useful tool for minimizing the cost and new way, but the tool can manage distribution center, and seaport exporting. While the focus of the paper is on sugar supply chain and rice supply chain, much of the information is relevant to distribution center management of other agricultural commodities as well. Index Terms -Cooperative Distribution, Tabu Search Algorithm, Genetic Algorithm, Vehicles Routing Problem.

GENETIC AND TABU SEARCH ALGORITHMS FOR THE SINGLE MACHINE SCHEDULING PROBLEM WITH SEQUENCE-DEPENDENT SET-UP TIMES AND DETERIORATING JOBS
This paper introduces the effects of job deterioration and sequence dependent set- up time in a single machine scheduling problem. The considered optimization criterion is the minimization of the makespan (Cmax). For this purpose, after formulating the mathematical model, genetic and tabu search algorithms were developed for the problem. Since population diversity is a very important issue in ...
متن کاملComparison of Simulated Annealing, Genetic, and Tabu Search Algorithms for Fracture Network Modeling
The mathematical modeling of fracture networks is critical for the exploration and development of natural resources. Fractures can help the production of petroleum, water, and geothermal energy. They also greatly influence the drainage and production of methane gas from coal beds. Orientation and spatial distribution of fractures in rocks are important factors in controlling fluid flow. The obj...
