The production-routing problem can be seen as a combination of two well known combinatorial optimization problems: the lotsizing and the vehicle routing problems. The variant considered in this paper consists in designing a production schedule for an uncapacitated plant, replenishment schedules for multiple customers, and a set of routes for a single uncapacitated vehicle starting and ending at...

using new approaches to optimize the process of power transmission line routing can solve many complex problems which power transmission line routing decision-makers are faced. due to the expansion of involved parameters we can consider multi-objective evolutionary algorithms as appropriate method in this area. in this thesis with using multi-objective evolutionary algorithms nsga-ii and offere...

While routing in multi-hop packet radio networks (static Ad-hoc wireless networks), it is crucial to minimize power consumption since nodes are powered by batteries of limited capacity and it is expensive to recharge the device. This paper studies the problem of broadcast routing in radio networks. Given a network with an identified source node, any broadcast routing is considered as a directed...

Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) is a novel technology that has recently emerged and due to its swift changing topology and high mobility nature, it has become problematic to design an efficient routing protocol in VANETs’ amongst both moving and stationary units. Also, the existing routing algorithms are not very effective to satisfy all requirements of VANETs. This paper explores the need o...

In this paper, we present a mathematical model which integrates tactical-operational production and distribution decisions in a shared resources environment. More precisely, we integrate lot sizing production and distribution decisions with vehicle routing decisions. We obtain a global multi-period multi-item multi-vehicle model where a capacity constraint models the link between production and...

muskingum-cunge is one of the widely employed methods for flood routing. direct calibration of the model based on previous flood events is not required and the routing parameters in this method are determined according to physical characteristics and hydraulic conditions of the stream. during the last decade, different modifications were proposed for the method to increase its accuracy. in this...

Legacy IPv4 networks are strenuous to manage and operate. Network operators in need of minimizing the capital operational expenditure running network infrastructure. The implementation software-defined networking (SDN) addresses those issues by expenditures long run. integrate with SDN for smooth migration towards fully functional environment. In this paper, we compare performance legacy IP rou...

Environmental pollution and emissions, along with the increasing production and distribution of goods, have placed the future of humanity at stake. Today, measures such as the extensive reduction in emissions, especially of CO2 and CO, have been emphasized by most researchers as a solution to the problem of environmental protection. This paper sought to explore production routing pro...
