Packing and vehicle routing problems play an important role in the area of supply chain management. In this paper, we introduce a non-linear knapsack problem that occurs when packing items along a fixed route and taking into account travel…
The Multiple-Depot Split Delivery Vehicle Routing Problem (MD-SDVRP) is a challenging problem with broad applications in logistics. The goal is to serve customers' demand using a fleet of capacitated vehicles located in multiple depots,…
Some of today's most significant challenges in urban environments concern individual mobility and rapid parcel delivery. With the surge of e-commerce and the ever-increasing volume of goods to be handled, new logistic solutions are in high…
Given facilities with capacities and clients with penalties and demands, the transportation problem with market choice consists in finding the minimum-cost way to partition the clients into unserved clients, paying the penalties, and into…
In this work, we study the square min-sum bin packing problem (SMSBPP), where a list of square items has to be packed into indexed square bins of dimensions $1 \times 1$ with no overlap between the areas of the items. The bins are indexed…
Solving a collision-aware multi-agent mission planning (task allocation and path finding) problem is challenging due to the requirement of real-time computational performance, scalability, and capability of handling static/dynamic obstacles…
Given a stream of food orders and available delivery vehicles, how should orders be assigned to vehicles so that the delivery time is minimized? Several decisions have to be made: (1) assignment of orders to vehicles, (2) grouping orders…
Packing problems are an important class of optimization problems. The probably most well-known problem if this type is knapsack and many generalizations of it have been studied in the literature like Two-dimensional Geometric Knapsack…
This paper introduces the Packing While Traveling problem as a new non-linear knapsack problem. Given are a set of cities that have a set of items of distinct profits and weights and a vehicle that may collect the items when visiting all…
We consider a memory allocation problem that can be modeled as a version of bin packing where items may be split, but each bin may contain at most two (parts of) items. A 3/2-approximation algorithm and an NP-hardness proof for this problem…
In dual decomposition, the dual to an optimization problem with a specific structure is solved in distributed fashion using (sub)gradient and recently also fast gradient methods. The traditional dual decomposition suffers from two main…
Reallocation scheduling is one of the most fundamental problems in various areas such as supply chain management, logistics, and transportation science. In this paper, we introduce the reallocation problem that models the scheduling in…
A multiple knapsack constraint over a set of items is defined by a set of bins of arbitrary capacities, and a weight for each of the items. An assignment for the constraint is an allocation of subsets of items to the bins which adheres to…
In several multiobjective decision problems Pairwise Comparison Matrices (PCM) are applied to evaluate the decision variants. The problem that arises very often is the inconsistency of a given PCM. In such a situation it is important to…
We study the three-dimensional Knapsack (3DK) problem, in which we are given a set of axis-aligned cuboids with associated profits and an axis-aligned cube knapsack. The objective is to find a non-overlapping axis-aligned packing (by…
The Dial-a-Ride Problem (DARP) is an optimization problem that involves determining optimal routes and schedules for several vehicles to pick up and deliver items at minimum cost. Motivated by real-world carpooling and crowdshipping…
The Multiple Drone-Delivery Scheduling Problem (MDSP) is a scheduling problem that optimizes the maximum reward earned by a set of $m$ drones executing a sequence of deliveries on a truck delivery route. The current best-known approximation…
This paper considers a crowdsourced delivery (CSD) system that effectively utilizes the existing trips to fulfill parcel delivery as a matching problem between CSD drivers and delivery tasks. This matching problem has two major challenges.…
In the (1-dimensional) bin packing problem, we are asked to pack all the given items into bins, each of capacity one, so that the number of non-empty bins is minimized. Zhu~[Chaos, Solitons \& Fractals 2016] proposed an approximation…
An unceasing problem of our prevailing society is the fair division of goods. The problem of proportional cake cutting focuses on dividing a heterogeneous and divisible resource, the cake, among $n$ players who value pieces according to…
