An Integrated Inventory Allocation and Vehicle Routing Problem
Transportation Science, 1989We address the problem of distributing a limited amount of inventory among customers using a fleet of vehicles so as to maximize profit. Both the inventory allocation and the vehicle routing problems are important logistical decisions. In many practical situations, these two decisions are closely interrelated, and therefore, require a systematic ...

Evolutionary Approach in Inventory Routing Problem
2013Most companies recognize the need for the integration and coordination of various components in logistics and supply chain management as an important factor. This paper presents an evolutionary approach to modeling and optimization on inventory routing problem of inventory management, logistics distribution and supply chain management.

The Stochastic Inventory Routing Problem with Direct Deliveries
Transportation Science, 2002Vendor managed inventory replenishment is a business practice in which vendors monitor their customers' inventories, and decide when and how much inventory should be replenished. The inventory routing problem addresses the coordination of inventory management and transportation.

A Combined Vehicle Routing and Inventory Allocation Problem
Operations Research, 1984We address the combined problem of allocating a scarce resource among several locations, and planning deliveries using a fleet of vehicles. Demands are random, and holding and shortage costs must be considered in the decision along with transportation costs.

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 ...
