Abstract:

Finding the location for plans like factories or warehousesfor any organization is an important and strategic decision. Costs oftransportation which are the main part of the price of the goods, is thefunction of the location of these projects. to find the optimum locationof these projects, there have been various methods proposed which areusually defined (not random). In reality and in dealing with real worldconditions, taking into account influential and effective parameters leadsto unexpected results. In this research, while introducing these definedalgorithms, it been tried to random location model based on the existingmodels. Regarding this, by studying the models taken in randomlocation we tried to propose an efficient and effective model. For thispurpose, by using randomized planning and randomized constrainedplanning, we turn random model to defined model, which is solvable byusing the last algorithm or standard planning methods.

Solving a Stochastic Cellular Manufacturing Model by Using Genetic Algorithms

This paper presents a mathematical model for designing cellular manufacturing systems (CMSs) solved by genetic algorithms. This model assumes a dynamic production, a stochastic demand, routing flexibility, and machine flexibility. CMS is an application of group technology (GT) for clustering parts and machines by means of their operational and / or apparent form similarity in different aspects ...

Ramsey Stochastic Model via Multistage Stochastic Programming

Ramsey model belongs to “classical” economic dynamic models. It has been (1928) originally constructed (with a farmer’s interpretation) in a deterministic discrete setting. To solve it Lagrangean or dynamic programming techniques can be employed. Later, this model has been generalized to a stochastic version. Time horizon in the original deterministic model as well as in modified stochastic one...

Dynamic Facility Location with Stochastic Demand

Determination of facilities, such as factories or warehouses, location and availability conditions is one of the important and strategic decisions for an organization to make. Transportation costs that form a major part of goods price are dependent to this decision making. There are verity of methods have been presented to achieve the optimal locations of these facilities which are generally de...
