Multi-trip Vehicle Routing with Order Compatibilies and Order Scheduling: a Problem Arising from Supply Chain Management
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this talk we introduce several new classes of rich vehicle routing problems which are motivated by a realworld problem arising in supply chain management. The problems are based on a specific 2-echelon distribution system where products come to the depot from different factories by semi-trailers and these semi-trailers are also used for short-haul distribution, i.e. the load from different factories is not consolidated at the depots. We specify the problem types and outline our algorithmic approaches used for solving.

Mathematical modeling of supply chain operations has proven to be one of the most complex tasks in the field of operations management and operations research. Despite the abundance of several modeling proposals in the literature; for vast majority of them, no effective universal application is conceived. This issue renders the proposed mathematical models inapplicable due largely to the fact th...

This paper considers the multi-depot vehicle routing problem with time window in which each vehicle starts from a depot and there is no need to return to its primary depot after serving customers. The mathematical model which is developed by new approach aims to minimizing the transportation cost including the travelled distance, the latest and the earliest arrival time penalties. Furthermore, ...
