Integrated location–inventory planning for slow‐moving demands with waiting time limitations
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract This paper studies a stochastic facility location problem integrated with inventory and transportation decisions (SFLPIT) for supply chains with slow‐moving stock‐keeping units (SKUs). Local stores often avoid maintaining such SKUs, resulting in customer demand being fulfilled directly by a central distribution center (DC), where the ...

A matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract We propose a matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints, where we seek to generate a set of routes with minimum total cost, in which the nodes visited in more than one route (consistent nodes) must occupy the same relative position in all routes.

A unified formulation for home healthcare routing and scheduling problems
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract Home Healthcare is an essential component of healthcare systems, where caregivers visit patients' homes to deliver services. While presenting advantages with respect to institutional care, such as being cost‐effective and alleviating family burdens, it presents challenges in scheduling and routing caregivers efficiently.

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract This research evaluates the effectiveness of a hybrid crowdshipping system that integrates occasional drivers with traditional delivery services (OD+TD) to improve the efficiency of freight distribution. By implementing the team orienteering problem with occasional drivers model, we develop a mathematical model and an agile optimization ...
