چکیده

In this paper the robust capacitated international sourcing problem (RoCIS) is approached. It consists of selecting a subset of suppliers with finite capacity, from an available set of potential suppliers internationally located. This problem was introduced by González-Velarde and Laguna in 2004[1], where they propose a deterministic solution based on Tabu Search memory strategies. In this work a structural and landscape analysis for the larger problem instances is reported, to try of explain the relative hardness observed when the improved tabu solution [11] is applied to solve the instances.

Adaptive memory programing for the robust capacitated international sourcing problem

The International Sourcing Problem consists of selecting a subset from an available set of potential suppliers internationally located. The selected suppliers must meet the demand for items of a set of plants, which are also located worldwide. Since the costs are affected by macroeconomic conditions in the countries where the supplier and the plant are located, the formulation considers the unc...

Solving a robust capacitated arc routing problem using a hybrid simulated annealing algorithm: A waste collection application

The urban waste collection is one of the major municipal activities that involves large expenditures and difficult operational problems. Also, waste collection and disposal have high expenses such as investment cost (i.e. vehicles fleet) and high operational cost (i.e. fuel, maintenance). In fact, making slight improvements in this issue lead to a huge saving in municipal consumption. Some inci...

Solving a Bi-Objective Multi-Product Vehicle Routing Problem with Heterogeneous Fleets under an Uncertainty Condition

This paper presents a novel bi-objective multi-product capacitated vehicle routing problem with uncertainty in demand of retailers and volume of products (UCVRP) and heterogeneous vehicle fleets. The first of two conflict fuzzy objective functions is to minimize the cost of the used vehicles, fuel consumption for full loaded vehicles and shortage of products. The second ...

A new Bi-objective model for a Two-echelon Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem for Perishable Products with the Environmental Factor

In multi-echelon distribution strategy freight is delivered to customers via intermediate depots. Rather than using direct shipments, this strategy is an increasingly popular one in urban logistics. This is primarily to alleviate the environmental (e.g., energy usage and congestion) and social (e.g., traffic-related air pollution, accidents and noise) consequences of logistics operations. This ...

ACO-Based Neighborhoods for Fixed-charge Capacitated Multi-commodity Network Design Problem

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...
