delivering perishable products to customers as soon as possible and with the minimum cost has been always a challenge for producers and has been emphasized over recent years due to the global market becoming more competitive. in this paper a multi-objective mix integer non-linear programming model is proposed to maximize both profits of a distributer and the total freshness of the several produ...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a method to evaluate the relative efficiency of decision making units (dmus). in this method, the issue has always been to determine a set of weights for each dmu which often caused many problems. since the dea models also have the multi-objective linear programming (molp) problems nature, a rational relationship can be established between molp and dea problem...

scheduling for job shop is very important in both fields of production management and combinatorial op-timization. however, it is quite difficult to achieve an optimal solution to this problem with traditional opti-mization approaches owing to the high computational complexity. the combination of several optimization criteria induces additional complexity and new problems. in this paper, we pro...
