The Inventory Routing Problem with Priorities and Fixed Heterogeneous Fleet
This paper presents a new combinatorial optimization problem, the inventory routing problem with priorities, and a fixed heterogeneous fleet. In this problem, a particular set of customers has to be served before the rest of the customers using vehicles ...

The inventory routing problem with split deliveries
AbstractWe study the benefit of introducing split deliveries in the inventory routing problem (IRP), both when the order‐up‐to level (OU) and the maximum level replenishment policies are applied. We first propose a mathematical formulation and solve it by implementing a branch‐and‐cut algorithm. Then, we carry out a worst‐case analysis to show the cost

Indexability and index heuristics for a simple class of inventory routing problems [PDF]
We utilise and develop Whittle's restless bandit formulation to analyse a simple class of inventory routing problems with direct deliveries. These routing problems arise from the practice of vendor-managed inventory replenishment and concern the optimal ...

A Multi-Objective Optimization Model For Location-Inventory-Routing Problem in a Multi-Echelon Supply Chain Network Considering Maximum Demand Coverage [PDF]
Today, intense competition in global markets has forced companies to design and manage of supply chains in a better way. Since the role of three factors: location, routing and inventory is important to continue the life of a supply chain so, integration ...

Location-Routing: Issues, Models and Methods [PDF]
This paper is a survey of location-routing: a relatively new branch of locational analysis that takes into account vehicle routing aspects. We propose a classification scheme and look at a number of problem variants. Both exact and heuristic algorithms
