    Multi-objective green supply chain optimization with a new hybrid memetic algorithm using the Taguchi method

    AbstractThe aim of most supply chain optimization problems is to minimize the total cost of the supply chain. However, since environmental protection is of concern to the public, a green supply chain, because of its minimum effect on nature, has been seriously considered as a solution to this concern. This paper addresses the modeling and solving of a supply chain design for annual cost minimization, while considering environmental effects. This paper considers the cost elements of the supply chain, such as transportation, holding and backorder costs, and also, the environmental effect components of the supply chain, such as the amount of NO2, CO and volatile organic particles produced by facilities and transportation in the supply chain. Considering these two components (cost and environmental effects), we propose a multi-objective optimization problem. In this model, the facilities and transportation options have a capacity constraint and, at each level of the chain, we have several transportation options with different costs. We utilize a memetic algorithm in combination with the Taguchi method to solve this complex model. We also propose a novel decoding method and priority based algorithm for coding the solution chromosome. The performance of the proposed solution method has been examined against the hybrid genetic Taguchi algorithm (GATA) on a set of numeric instances, and results indicate that the proposed method can effectively provide better results than previous solution procedures

    An Integrated Model for Production and Distribution Planning of Perishable Products with Inventory and Routing Considerations

    In many conventional supply chains, production planning and distribution planning are treated separately. However, it is now demonstrated that they are mutually related problems that must be tackled in an integrated way. Hence, in this paper a new integrated production and distribution planning model for perishable products is formulated. The proposed model considers a supply chain network consisting of a production facility and multiple distribution centers. The facility produces a single perishable product that is storable only for predetermined periods. A homogenous fleet of vehicles is responsible for delivering the product from facility to distribution centers. The decisions to be made are the production quantities, the distribution centers that must be visited, and the quantities to be delivered to them. The objective is to minimize the total cost, where the trip minimization is considered simultaneously. As the proposed formulation is computationally complex, a heuristic method is developed to tackle the problem. In the developed method, the problem is divided into production submodel and distribution submodel. The production submodel is solved using LINGO, and a particle swarm heuristic is developed to tackle distribution submodel. Efficiency of the algorithm is proved through a number of randomly generated test problems

    A bi-objective optimization model for a carbon cap jit distribution network

    The environmental protection concerns and legislation are pushing companies to redesign and plan their activities in an environmental friendly manner. This will probably be done by constraining companies to emit less than a given amount of carbon dioxide per product that is being produced and transported. In addition, some companies may volunteer to reduce their carbon footprint. Consequently, companies will face new constraints that force them to reduce carbon emissions while still minimizing production and transportation costs. Transportation is at the heart of logistics activities and is one of the leading sources of greenhouse gas emissions. The emitted carbon dioxide through transportation activities is accounting for almost 80% of the total greenhouse gas emissions. The need to implement Just-In-Time (JIT) strategy for transporting small batch sizes seems to beagainst environmental concerns. The JIT principles favor small and frequent deliveries by many small rush transports with multiple regional warehouses. Although several attempts have been made to analyze green supply chain networks, little attention has been paid to develop JIT distribution models in carbon constrained environment. Incorporation of environmental objectives and constraints with JIT distribution will generate new problems resulting in new combinatorial optimization models. In addition, these objectives and constraints will add to the model complexities. Both areas require to be investigated. In this research, a bi-objective carbon-capped logistic model was developed for a JIT distribution that takes into account different carbon emission constraints. The objectives include minimization of total costs and carbon cap. Since the studied problem is Non-deterministic Polynomial-time Hard (NP-Hard), a nondominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II) was employed to solve the problem. For validation and verification of the obtained results, non-dominated ranking genetic algorithm (NRGA) was applied. Then, Taguchi approach was employed to tune the parameters of both algorithms; their performances were then compared in terms of some multi-objective performance measures. For further improvements of NSGA-II, a modified firefly algorithm as local searcher was applied. Seven problems with different sizes of small, medium, and large were designed in order to simulate the different cases. The findings have significant implications for the understanding of how varying carbon cap could significantly affect total logistics costs and total carbon emission. More specifically, the results also demonstrated devising policies that enable companies to decide when and how to fulfill the required carbon cap could let firms fulfill these caps at significantly lower costs with lower carbon emission. In addition to these findings, the performance of the proposed solution methodology demonstrated higher efficiency particularly in terms of less CPU time usage by 6.62% and higher quality of obtained solutions by 5.14% on average for different sizes of the problem as compared to the classical NSGA-II

    A multi-period and multi-product optimizer for cooperative supply chains

    Members in a traditional supply chain compete to reduce their individual costs. But total cost is minimized in a cooperative, or a corporate managed, supply chain. A lower average cost and a lower cost variation are achieved by cooperative individual members in the long-run. The problem is formulated and solved as an integrated flow network. Previous research is expanded to include multi-period and multi-product cooperative supply chain with possibility of holding inventory in a multi-stage, multi-member setup. A Cooperative Supply Optimizer System (CSOS), a software-based coordination mechanism, is developed for large chains. It gathers operational information from members of the supply chain, and then guides them on ordering decisions for a minimum cost of the entire supply chain. Simulation results indicate an approximately 26% reduction in total supply chain costs, utilizing this formulation over a competitive setup. As the holding costs increase, the problem decomposes into single period (Just-in-time) again. The disturbing bullwhip effect disappears in cooperative supply chains

    The value of integrated planning for production, inventory, and routing decisions: A systematic review and meta-analysis

    Get PDF
    This paper presents a comparison of sequential and integrated planning for the production routing problem, in which production, inventory, and routing decisions must be made. The aim is to estimate the expected value of treating the problems as a whole, rather than making decisions sequentially. In particular, the following research questions are posed: What is the expected cost reduction when combining production, inventory, and routing in a single modeling framework, compared to solving the problems individually in a sequence? Under which circumstances is it most beneficial to tackle an integrated problem? In other words, the goal is to establish whether the solutions obtained by the integration are clearly better than approximate solutions obtained by a more simplified process, and if so, under which circumstances this difference is the most pronounced. To answer these research questions, a systematic review was performed, resulting in a set of 20 relevant articles that were analyzed in depth. For the first research question, computational results from 15 articles were obtained and analyzed through a meta-analysis. The analysis estimated an expected cost savings provided by integration of 11.08%, with a 95% confidence interval of [6.58%, 15.58%]. For the second research question, individual results obtained via sensitivity analyses in 20 relevant articles were summarized qualitatively, enabling insights into how the potential savings by integration is influenced by parameters such as the degrees of freedom, the cost, and the capacity. © 2022 The AuthorsGrantová Agentura České Republiky, GA ČR; Norges Forskningsråd; Univerzita Tomáše Bati ve Zlíně: GA 20-00091

    This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published in International Journal of Production Research on 27 Mar 2014, available online: http://doi.org/10.1080/00207543.2014.899721[EN] This study presents a review of optimization models for tactical production planning. The objective of this research is to identify streams and future research directions in this field based on the different classification criteria proposed. The major findings indicate that: (1) the most popular production-planning area is master production scheduling with a big-bucket time-type period; (2) most of the considered limited resources correspond to productive resources and, to a lesser extent, to inventory capacities; (3) the consideration of backlogs, set-up times, parallel machines, overtime capacities and network-type multisite configuration stand out in terms of extensions; (4) the most widely used modelling approach is linear/integer/mixed integer linear programming solved with exact algorithms, such as branch-and-bound, in commercial MIP solvers; (5) CPLEX, C and its variants and Lindo/Lingo are the most popular development tools among solvers, programming languages and modelling languages, respectively; (6) most works perform numerical experiments with random created instances, while a small number of works were validated by real-world data from industrial firms, of which the most popular are sawmills, wood and furniture, automobile and semiconductors and electronic devices.This study has been funded by the Universitat Politècnica de València projects: ‘Material Requirement Planning Fourth Generation (MRPIV)’ (Ref.
