In a production scheduling with delivery problem, there are different types of products processed by a distribution center and then delivered to retailers. Each retailer order might be consisted of different products. The resolution of this problem is to determine the production sequence,...

Deplaning naturally occurs row by row down the length of an aircraft. Using simulation and optimization, we design deplaning strategies (e.g., deplane by group and/or column) that significantly reduce the overall unstructured deplaning time. The evaluations derived from a combination of...

This paper describes a penalty-free multi-objective evolutionary optimization approach for the phased whole-life design and rehabilitation of water distribution systems. The optimization model considers the initial construction, rehabilitation and upgrading costs. Repairs and pipe failure costs...
