To improve efficiency and sustainability in synchromodal logistics, it becomes crucial to mitigate the disruptive effects caused by non-synchronized operations. In this work, we study Synchronized Location-Transshipment Problem which decisions on facilities select are fundamental ensure synchronization of flows correct exploiting just-in-time logistics cross-docking We propose a Mixed-Integer L...

This paper develops an informative column generation and decomposition method for a capacitated multi-item lot sizing and facility location problem with backlogging. The method hybridizes column generation to achieve a relaxed linear solution and a decomposition method (i.e., relax-and-fix) to achieve a feasible solution. The two solutions are used for a neighborhood search procedure that fixes...

location selection is one of the most important activities in establishment of bank branches. choosing a suitable location have a direct impact on the performance of banks and also facilitating the achievement of other objectives. there are a lot of influential factors on the location selection which are complicated and therefore the traditional methods cannot be used. so we need to have a suit...
