Inventory routing problems: a logistical overview
Journal of the Operational Research Society, 2007Summary: This paper presents an overview of Supply Chain Management while focussing on the area of Inventory Routing. We aim to provide the state-of-the-art in this area while highlighting the usefulness of the models in practice as well as their limitations.

A Matheuristic Algorithm for the Inventory Routing Problem
Transportation Science, 2020This work addresses a challenging inventory routing problem that arises from a practical application faced by air-product companies, including Air Liquide. Given its computational complexity and industrial importance, this problem (denoted as IRP-Challenge2016) was presented as the topic of the French Operational Research and Decision Support Society ...

The Continuous-Time Inventory-Routing Problem
Transportation Science, 2020We consider a continuous-time variant of the inventory-routing problem in which the maximum quantity that can delivered to a customer depends on the customer’s storage capacity and product inventory at the time of the delivery. We investigate critical components of a dynamic discretization discovery algorithm and demonstrate in an extensive ...

RFID-enabled inventory routing problems
International Journal of Manufacturing Technology and Management, 2007In this paper, we provide a methodology for dynamic control of Radio Frequency Identification- (RFID-) enabled Inventory Routing Problems (IRP), where a set of locations is served by a single distribution centre using a Vendor-Managed Inventory (VMI) approach.

The Fixed-Partition Policy Inventory Routing Problem
Transportation Science, 2021In this paper, we formally introduce a variant of the inventory routing problem (IRP) that we call the fixed-partition policy IRP (FPP-IRP). In contrast to the classical IRP in which delivery routes are arbitrary, the FPP-IRP partitions customers into mutually exclusive clusters that are fixed throughout the optimization horizon, and distribution is ...

An Efficient Matheuristic for the Inventory Routing Problem
2020We consider the general multi-vehicle and multi-period Inventory Routing Problem (IRP). A challenging aspect of solving IRPs is how to capture the relationship among the periods where the routing takes place. Once the routes are defined, computing the optimal inventory at each customer on each period amounts to solving a network flow problem.

Profit Maximization in Inventory Routing Problems
2018 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM), 2018The inventory routing problem (IRP) deals with the transportation of one product from a producer to multiple consumers, which have given demands and inventory capacities, over a discrete time horizon. The traditional goal of the IRP is to minimize the combination of inventory and transportation costs, while avoiding stock outs at customers.

An Effective Matheuristic for the Multivehicle Inventory Routing Problem
Transportation Science, 2022This study considers the multivehicle inventory routing problem in which a supplier has to build a distribution plan over a discrete time horizon to replenish a set of customers that faces a given demand. Transportation costs as well as inventory costs at the supplier and at the customers are to be minimized.
