This paper offers a new algorithm to efficiently optimize scheduling decisions for dial-a-ride problems (DARPs), including problem variants considering electric and autonomous vehicles (e-ADARPs). The scheduling heuristic, based on linear programming theor ...
In light of the challenges posed by climate change and the goals of the Paris Agreement, electricity generation is shifting to a more renewable and decentralized pattern, while the operation of systems like buildings is increasingly electrified. This calls ...
In this article, the design of a quality control network is considered in an entire supply chain, in the context of an international food and beverage company, denoted as ABC. For each possible control point of the network, two decisions have to be made: ( ...
Recently the optimisation of end-of-life (EOL) computer remanufacturing has been highlighted since a big amount of used computers have been disposed of every year. Each part inspected after disassembling EOL computers can have various EOL options such as r ...
This paper presents a scheduling model to enhance cross-docking operations. It attempts to reduce the transshipment workload by minimizing the total number of products that require double-handling. We formalize the problem and represent its mathematical fo ...
This thesis develops mathematical programming frameworks to operate electric autonomous vehicles in the context of ride-sharing services. The introduced problem is a novel variant of the Dial-a-Ride Problem (DARP), denoted by the electric Autonomous Dial-a ...
Many of the currently best-known approximation algorithms for NP-hard optimization problems are based on Linear Programming (LP) and Semi-definite Programming (SDP) relaxations. Given its power, this class of algorithms seems to contain the most favourable ...
We consider linear programming (LP) problems in infinite dimensional spaces that are in general computationally intractable. Under suitable assumptions, we develop an approximation bridge from the infinite-dimensional LP to tractable finite convex programs ...
Determining appropriate utility specifications for discrete choice models is time-consuming and prone to errors. As the number of possible functions exponentially grows with the variables under consideration, analysts need to spend increasing amounts of ti ...
Linear programming (LP) has played a key role in the study of algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems. In the field of approximation algorithms, this is well illustrated by the uncapacitated facility location problem. A variety of algorithmic me ...
