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 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.

Heuristic approaches for a new variant of the team orienteering problem
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract In this paper, we tackle the team orienteering problem (TOP) with service times, mandatory nodes and incompatibilities arising from two real‐world healthcare applications. We propose two heuristic algorithms: a variable neighbourhood descent algorithm and a matheuristic based on a cut separation approach.

Balancing efficiency and robustness in project team formation: a hybrid evolutionary‐MCDM approach
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract Effective team formation requires balancing technical skills, personality compatibility, and project constraints when selecting small teams from large candidate pools. Traditional multi‐criteria decision‐making (MCDM) methods provide rigorous evaluation but face scalability limitations.
