full texttruck sequencing and dock assignment in a cross-docking system
in a supply chain, cross-docking is one of the most innovative systems for ameliorating the operational performance at distribution centers. cross-docking is a logistics strategy in which freight is unloaded from inbound trucks and (almost) directly loaded into outbound trucks, with little or no storage in between, thus no inventory remains at the distribution center. in this paper, we consider...
