Models, methods and algorithms for supply chain planning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.An outline of supply chains and differences in the problem types is given. The motivation for a generic framework is discussed and explored.

Split-merge:using exponential neighborhood search for scheduling a batching machine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We address the problem of scheduling a single batching machine to minimize the maximum lateness with a constraint restricting the batch size. A solution for this NP-hard problem is defined by a selection of jobs for each batch and an ordering of those ...

Multi-Objective Large Neighborhood Search [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Large neighborhood search (LNS) [25] is a framework that combines the expressiveness of constraint programming with the efficiency of local search to solve combinatorial optimization problems. This paper introduces an extension of LNS, called multi-objective LNS (MO-LNS), to solve multi-objective combinatorial optimization problems ubiquitous in ...

Primal-dual variable neighborhood search for the simple plant-location problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Copyright @ 2007 INFORMSThe variable neighborhood search metaheuristic is applied to the primal simple plant-location problem and to a reduced dual obtained by exploiting the complementary slackness conditions.

An adaptive neutrosophic large neighborhood search and its application [PDF]

open access: yesNeutrosophic Sets and Systems
An adaptive large neighborhood search (ALNS) lacks a clear measure for assessing the improvement degree in the new solution, which causes fuzziness and uncertainty in the operator score.

The Dynamic Electric Carsharing Relocation Problem

open access: yesEURO Journal on Transportation and Logistics, 2021
This article addresses a relocation and recharging problem faced by modern carsharing operators who manage a fleet of electric vehicles. As customers utilize the fleet, batteries are depleted and vehicles are possibly left in low-demand locations ...

Adaptive Large Neighborhood Search

open access: yes, 2015
There has already been a lot of research on Local Search Heuristics in Computer Science. Local Search improves an initial solution by manipulating rather small parts of the solution.

Integrated Production and Distribution Problem of Perishable Products with a Minimum Total Order Weighted Delivery Time

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
In this paper, an integrated production and distribution problem for perishable products is presented, which is an NP hard problem where a single machine, multi-customers, and homogenous vehicles with capacity constraints are considered. The objective is
