this paper deals with a multi-period fixed charge production-distribution problem associated with backorder and inventories. the objective is to determine the size of the shipments from each supplier and backorder and inventories at each period, so that the total cost incurred during the entire period towards production, transportation, backorder and inventories is minimised. a 0-1 mixed intege...

In this paper, we develop the fuzzy fixed charge transportation problem when the costs are the fuzzy numbers. The first step it transform into the classical fuzzy transportation problem. The next, we obtain the best approximation fuzzy on the optimal value of the fuzzy fixed-charge transportation problem. This method obtains a lower and upper bounds both on the fuzzy optimal value of the fuzzy ...

Abstract During past few decades, fuzzy decision is an important attention in the areas of science, engineering, economic system, business, etc. To solve day-to-day problem, researchers use data transportation problem for presenting uncontrollable factors; and most multi-objective problems are solved using goal programming. However, when contains interval-valued data, then obtained solution was...

The fixed-charge Capacitated Multi-commodity Network Design (CMND) is a well-known problem of both practical and theoretical significance. Network design models represent a wide variety of planning and operation management issues in transportation telecommunication, logistics, production and distribution. In this paper, Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) based neighborhoods are proposed for CMND pro...

In the literature hardly any attention is paid to solving a fuzzy fixed charge transportation problem. In this paper, we consider the fully fixed-charge transportation problem and try to find both the lower and upper bounds on the fuzzy optimal value of such a problem in which all of the parameters are triangular fuzzy numbers. To illustrate the proposed method, a numerical example is ‎presented.‎

in this paper, we consider the fuzzy fixed-charge transportation problem (ffctp). both of fixed and transportation cost are fuzzy numbers. contrary to previous works, electromagnetism-like algorithms (em) is firstly proposed in this research area to solve the problem. three types of em; original em, revised em, and hybrid em are firstly employed for the given problem. the latter is being firstl...
