The role of logistics management is changing. Many companies are realizing that value for a customer can, in part, be created through logistics management (Langley and Holcomb, 1996). Customer value can be created through product availability, timeliness and consistency of delivery, ease of placing orders, and other elements of logistics service ...

Performance Measurement for Inventory Routing
Transportation Science, 2007We develop technology to measure the effectiveness of distribution strategies for inventory routing. Popular, practical performance measures, such as volume delivered per mile, are effective in measuring relative performance but inadequate in measuring absolute performance.

Thirty Years of Inventory Routing
Transportation Science, 2014The inventory-routing problem (IRP) dates back 30 years. It can be described as the combination of vehicle-routing and inventory management problems, in which a supplier has to deliver products to a number of geographically dispersed customers, subject to side constraints.

Inventory and Routing Policies in Vendor Managed Inventory System
2012 Fifth International Joint Conference on Computational Sciences and Optimization, 2012In this paper, an inventory control policy and routing strategy are jointly considered by developing dynamic programming model in vendor managed inventory system. The inventory policy is proved to be (s, S) pattern and two routing options are examined by simulation.

A Hybrid Heuristic for an Inventory Routing Problem
INFORMS Journal on Computing, 2012We consider an inventory routing problem in discrete time where a supplier has to serve a set of customers over a multiperiod horizon. A capacity constraint for the inventory is given for each customer, and the service cannot cause any stockout situation.

Matheuristics for Inventory Routing Problems
2011In this chapter the authors review the main heuristic approaches for the solution of inventory routing problems and present the most recent and interesting ideas for the design of a new class of heuristics, that they call matheuristics. A matheuristic embeds, in a heuristic or metaheuristic scheme, the exact solution of one or several mathematical ...

Marine inventory routing: shipments planning
Journal of the Operational Research Society, 2002Summary: This paper addresses a shipments-planning problem faced by producers of large volume liquid bulk products. Producing origins with limited tank storage capacity supply multiple products by ships (or barges) to consuming destinations that also have limited storage capacity. Timing, origin, destination, and product quantities of shipments have to
