Purpose: Research suggests that material handling costs account for 20-50% of production costs. Furthermore, these production cost could be reduced by 10-30% by dynamically changing the layout. We propose an integer programming model to sustainably solve plant layouts in a financially...

Effective management of fuel logistic distribution is essential for ensuring timely supply chain operations and achieving product sustainability. This study employs systematic literature mapping (SLM) to identify gaps in research and potential advancements in Supply Chain Management (SCM) for...

In modern Industry 4.0 environments, real-time scheduling presents a complex challenge requiring both formal correctness guarantees and optimal performance. Background: Traditional approaches fail to provide an optimal integration between formal correctness guaranteeing and optimization, and...

Efficient order fulfillment in e-tailing networks is increasingly challenged by inventory shortages, dispersed fulfillment centers, and heterogeneous customer preferences. This study develops a mixed-integer programming model that jointly optimizes order allocation, substitution, and lateral...

Background: Convenience stores face volatile demand and a direct trade-off between stock-outs and overstocking, both of which affect service levels and profitability. This study aims to optimize inventory management through a reproducible forecasting-and-optimization workflow, assessing its...

The increasing urgency of carbon footprint reduction in supply chain operations demands innovative optimization approaches that balance economic efficiency with environmental sustainability. This paper presents a novel carbon-aware route optimization framework that integrates machine...
