As an important means of providing medical services in developing countries and remote areas, Mobile Health Clinics (MHCs) focus on distributing medical supplies and providing basic health needs to underserved communities. In this paper, we…
Different retail and e-commerce companies are facing the challenge of assembling large numbers of time-critical picking orders that include both small-line and multi-line orders. To reduce unproductive picker working time as in traditional…
The problem of how to coordinate a large fleet of trucks with given itinerary to enable fuel-efficient platooning is considered. Platooning is a promising technology that enables trucks to save significant amounts of fuel by driving close…
In this work we compare several new computational approaches to an inventory routing problem, in which a single product is shipped from a warehouse to retailers via an uncapacitated vehicle. We survey exact algorithms for the Traveling…
We consider a vehicle routing problem which seeks to minimize cost subject to service level constraints on several groups of deliveries. This problem captures some essential challenges faced by a logistics provider which operates…
The penetration of variable renewable energy (VRE) in electrical systems has changed the way the expansion planning is treated. This kind of resource has great variability in small amounts of time, which makes it important to represent…
This study investigates the potential of hydrogen as a sustainable energy carrier for mobility applications in island territories, which are traditionally dependent on fossil fuel imports. Green hydrogen is identified as a key component of…
This work is motivated by solving a problem faced by big agriculture companies implementing precision agriculture operations for spraying practices using two types of operators, namely a tender tanker and a fleet of sprayers. We model this…
The Multi-Objective Vehicle Routing Problem (MOVRP) is a complex optimization problem in the transportation and logistics industry. This paper proposes a novel approach to the MOVRP that aims to create routes that consider drivers' and…
The integration of electric vehicles (EVs) with the energy grid has become an important area of research due to the increasing EV penetration in today's transportation systems. Under appropriate management of EV charging and discharging,…
In the era of industry 4.0, procurement in supply chain management is the key to developing information management systems. It directly affects production planning failure. In this case, it is the process to prepare and confirming the…
We study the solution of a large-scale transportation problem with an additional constraint on the sparsity of inbound flows. Such problems arise in the management of inventory for online retailers that operate with many order fulfillment…
Tanker-based distribution systems have been prevalent in developing countries to supply clean and pure water in different regions. To efficiently operate such tanker service systems, a large fleet of tanker trucks are required to transport…
The vehicle routing problem has great importance and application in transportation and supply chain management. In this case, there are several supply requests in a transportation network. The main goal is to allocate customers to available…
The rise of battery-powered vehicles has led to many new technical and methodological hurdles. Among these, the efficient planning of an electric fleet to fulfill passenger transportation requests still represents a major challenge. This is…
In this paper, we consider the Delay Constrained Unsplittable Shortest Path Routing problem which arises in the field of traffic engineering for IP networks. This problem consists, given a directed graph and a set of commodities, to compute…
We consider the following two deterministic inventory optimization problems over a finite planning horizon $T$ with non-stationary demands. (a) Submodular Joint Replenishment Problem: This involves multiple item types and a single retailer…
Transportation occupies one-third of the amount in the logistics costs, and accordingly transportation systems largely influence the performance of the logistics system. This work presents an adaptive data-driven innovative modular approach…
In this paper, we develop a profit-sharing-based optimal routing mechanism to incentivize horizontal collaboration among urban goods distributors. This paper investigates a collaborative routing problem for urban logistics, in which the…
We propose a joint model that links the strategic level location and capacity decisions with the operational level routing and hub assignment decisions to solve hub network design problem with congestion and heterogeneous economics of…
