In this paper, we consider a multi-source Weber problem of m new facilities with respect to n demand regions in order to minimize the sum of the transportation costs between these facilities and the demand regions. We find a point on the border of each demand region from which the facilities serve the demand regions at these points. We present an algorithm including a location phase and an allocation...
This paper investigates the coordination problem of a supply chain (SC) composed of a manufacturer exhibiting corporate social responsibility (CSR) and a retailer faced with random demand. The random demand is made up of the multiplication of price-dependent demand and random demand factor (RDF), plus the CSR-dependent demand. The centralized decision problem of the SC is an extension of the existing...
Interior point methods usually rely on iterative methods to solve the linear systems of large scale problems. The paper proposes a hybrid strategy using groups for the preconditioning of these iterative methods. The objective is to solve large scale linear programming problems more efficiently by a faster and robust computation of the preconditioner. In these problems, the coefficient matrix of the...
In the context of recreational routing, the problem of finding a route which starts and ends in the same location (while achieving a length between specified upper and lower boundaries) is a common task, especially for tourists or cyclists who want to exercise. The topic of finding a tour between a specified starting and ending location while minimizing one or multiple criteria is well covered in...
