in recent years, supplier evaluation and selection, an important element in supply chain management, has been gaining attention in both academic literature and industrial practice. the mixed integer multi-objective non-linear programming model (mimonlp) presented in this paper aimed to evaluate and select the appropriate set of suppliers considering quantitative and qualitative criteria and in ...

This paper presents a review of past and present results approaches in the area motion planning using MIP (Mixed-integer Programming). Although early 2000s was still seen with reluctance as method for solving planning-related problems, nowadays, due to increases computational power theoretical advances, its extensive modeling capabilities versatility are coming fore enjoy increased application ...

In this study, a flexible optimization approach is introduced to design an optimal biocompatible solvent for an extractive fermentation process with cell-recycling. The optimal process/solvent design problem is formulated as a mixed-integer nonlinear programming model in which performance requirements of the compounds are reflected in the objectives and the constraints. A flexible or fuzzy opti...
