Inverse optimization is one of the interesting areas in both fundamental and applied
research. This paper introduces a new approach, named as Khalifa, Kumar, and Mirjalili …

Transportation problems are nowadays strategic issues which aim at selecting the routes to
be opened between different facilities in order to achieve an efficient distribution strategy …

In this paper, we are addressing the two-stage transportation problem with fixed charge for
opening the distribution centers, which is an extension of the classical transportation …

This article considers the two-stage fixed-charge transportation problem which models an
important transportation application in a supply chain, from manufacturers to customers …

This paper is focusing on an important transportation application encountered in supply
chains, namely the capacitated two-stage fixed-charge transportation problem. For solving …

This paper deals with a complex optimization problem, more specifically the two-stage
transportation problem with fixed costs. In our investigated transportation problem, we are …

Mexico is located within the so‐called Fire Belt which makes it susceptible to earthquakes. In
fact, two‐thirds of the Mexican territory have a significant seismic risk. On the other hand, the …

This paper concerns the two-stage transportation problem with fixed charges associated to
the routes and proposes an efficient multi-start Iterated Local Search (ILS) procedure for the …

In the current paper we take a different approach to a particular capacitated two-stage fixed-
charge transportation problem proposing an efficient hybrid Iterated Local Search (HILS) …

Supply chain network design (SCND) is the process for designing and modeling the supply
chain such that to minimize the costs generated by the location of facilities and the flow of …
