Optimization Models and Algorithms for Spatial Scheduling
… from a mathematical and algorithmic perspective. Optimization models based on integer programming are developed for several classes of spatial scheduling problems. While the majority of these models address problems having an objective of minimizing total tardiness, the models are shown to contain …

New optimization models for empty container management
… context of international trade. We develop new optimization models in order to support shipping companies in dealing with empty container repositioning. We determine optimal repositioning plans within the time limits imposed by planning operations. Some optimization models have been tested on …
