Online Problems in Routing and Scheduling
نویسندگان
چکیده
An online problem is one that must be ”solved” without knowing the future or without having complete information. One common approach to evaluating strategies for such problems is to assume a specific stochastic model of the unknown and use various probabilistic tools. Another approach, sometimes called competitive analysis, and related to min-max strategies in game theory, evaluates strategies under worst-case scenarios. In this talk, after reviewing the state of the art for online problems in routing and scheduling problems, we present recent results on online traveling salesman problems, online traveling repairman problems, and other variants. Let us briefly describe here results associated with the online traveling salesman problems as contained in Jaillet and Wagner [6].

Mathematical modeling of supply chain operations has proven to be one of the most complex tasks in the field of operations management and operations research. Despite the abundance of several modeling proposals in the literature; for vast majority of them, no effective universal application is conceived. This issue renders the proposed mathematical models inapplicable due largely to the fact th...
