the aim of this study is to propose a new mixed integer linear programming (milp) model to find the minimum required number of yard cranes, rubber tyred gantry cranes (rtgcs), for completion the total amount of works at the end of planning horizon. in other word, we find the optimal number of yard cranes in a container terminal which completes the total amount of works. the paper supports the p...

research interests have been focused on the concept of penalizing jobs both for being early and for being tardy because not only of modern competitive industrial challenges of providing a variety of products at a very low cost by smoothing productions but also of its increasing and exciting computer applications. here, sequencing approaches of the mixed- model just-in-time production systems is...

despite existing various integer programming for sequencing problems, there is not enoughinformation about practical values of the models. this paper considers the problem of minimizing maximumlateness with release dates and presents four different mixed integer programming (mip) models to solve thisproblem. these models have been formulated for the classical single machine problem, namely sequ...

This paper uses the L1−norm and the concept of the non-dominated vector, topropose a method to find a well-dispersed subset of non-dominated (WDSND) vectorsof a multi-objective mixed integer linear programming (MOMILP) problem.The proposed method generalizes the proposed approach by Tohidi and Razavyan[Tohidi G., S. Razavyan (2014), determining a well-dispersed subset of non-dominatedvectors of...

one of important problems in supply chains management is supplier selection. in a company, there are massive data from various departments so that extracting knowledge from the company’s data is too complicated. many researchers have solved this problem by some methods like fuzzy set theory, goal programming, multi objective programming, the liner programming, mixed integer programming, analyti...
