Given an integer solution, the integral simplex using decomposition (ISUD) seeks a descent direction that leads to an improved adjacent integer solution. It ...
BibTeX referenceIntegral column generation
The integral simplex using decomposition (ISUD) algorithm was recently developed to solve efficiently set partitioning problems containing a number of variab...

A performance-based mechanism as a support for an environmental protection law is proposed to promote product recovery and to subside the pollution caused by...
BibTeX referenceAre ECVs breaking even? Competitiveness of electric commercial vehicles in retail logistics
In this paper, we evaluate the competitiveness of electric commercial vehicle (ECV) in medium-duty mid-haul logistics for a specific case study. This is done...
BibTeX referenceThe impact of synchronizing drivers breaks and recharging operations for electric vehicles
Electric commercial vehicles (ECVs) are gaining importance as they are seen to provide a sustainable mean of transportation. However, practitioners still see...

The purpose of this paper is to develop a fast heuristic called FastCARP for the solution of very large-scale capacitated arc routing problems, with or witho...
BibTeX referenceThe carousel scheduling problem
Scheduling problems on which constraints are imposed with regard to the temporal distances between successive executions of the same task have numerous appli...
BibTeX reference
In this article we consider a bi-objective vehicle routing problem in which, in addition to the classical minimization of the total routing cost, the operato...

Personnel scheduling consists of determining least-cost employee work schedules to cover the demand of one or several jobs in each period of a time horizon. ...
BibTeX reference
In this article, we discuss an alternative method for deriving conservative approximation models for two-stage robust optimization problems. The method main...
BibTeX referenceDesigning sustainable mid-haul logistics networks with intra-route multi-resource facilities
Location-routing problems (LRPs) with intra-route facilities have recently gained the attention of researchers and practitioners. Intra-route facilities are ...
BibTeX referenceComputational comparison of several algorithms for the minimum cost perfect matching problem
The aim of this paper is to computationally compare several algorithms for the Minimum Cost Perfect Matching Problem on an undirected graph. Our work is moti...
