چکیده
IDSIA, Istituto Dalle Molle di Studi sull’Intelligenza Artificiale is a research institute active in both theoretical and applied research in the field of Operations Research and Artificial Intelligence. Since 1996 IDSIA has capitalize on the results obtained in the theoretical field applying them to real world logistics and transport applications. In this communication we outline the major results we have obtained in combinatorial optimisation problems, and their applications to real-world problems. We also show how the real world provides a source of continuous inspiration to solve theoretical problems that can be later applied to a real problem.

Logistics and pretreatment of forest biomass
In large regions of the world, biomass is a very important source of energy. The global bioenergy market based on forest biomass is growing rapidly. About 92 % of the bioenergy in Sweden comes from forests. Biomass from forests is not homogenous. The locations, transport distances, and transport methods, can differ very much and the industries that need biomass as input prefer raw materials wit...
متن کاملAn optimization model for management of empty containers in distribution network of a logistics company under uncertainty
In transportation via containers, unbalanced movement of loaded containers forces shipping companies to reposition empty containers. This study addresses the problem of empty container repositioning (ECR) in the distribution network of a European logistics company, where some restrictions impose decision making in an uncertain environment. The problem involves dispatching empty contain...

متن کاملA hybrid solution approach for a multi-objective closed-loop logistics network under uncertainty
The design of closed-loop logistics (forward and reverse logistics) has attracted growing attention with the stringent pressures of customer expectations, environmental concerns and economic factors. This paper considers a multi-product, multi-period and multi-objective closed-loop logistics network model with regard to facility expansion as a facility location–allocation problem, which more cl...
