The optimal delivery route problem for truck–drone delivery is defined as a traveling salesman problem with drone (TSP-D), which has been studied in a wide range of previous literature. However, most of the existing studies ignore truck waiting...
This paper presents a scheduling problem of using multiple synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellites to observe a large irregular area (SMA). SMA is usually considered as a kind of nonlinear combinatorial optimized problem and its solution space stro...
This paper investigates a uniform parallel machine scheduling problem for makespan minimization. Due to the problem’s NP-hardness, much effort from researchers has been directed toward proposing heuristic and metaheuristic algorithms that can f...
The optimal allocation of Wireless Smart Concentrators (WSCs) in low-voltage (LV) distribution networks poses significant challenges due to signal attenuation caused by varying building densities and vegetation. This paper proposes a Variable Neighbo...
This paper proposes an efficient algorithm that integrates a variable neighborhood search (VNS) framework with an adaptive voxel discretization for the three-dimensional irregular packing problem. The problem arises in additive manufacturing, logisti...
This paper investigates the optimal routing design problem of a community shuttle system feeding to metro stations based on demand-responsive service. The solution aims to jointly optimize a set of customized routes and the departure time of each rou...
In modern amphibious operations, the dynamic scheduling of shipborne unmanned helicopters faces challenges including highly uncertain operational environments, complex and variable mission requirements, and stringent resource constraints. To tackle t...
This study introduces a decision support framework that integrates aircraft trajectory optimization and arrival scheduling to facilitate efficient management of descent operations for arriving aircraft within terminal maneuvering areas. The framework...
Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RSs) are pivotal hubs in modern intelligent logistics, yet their operational efficiency is often constrained by the complex coupling of storage allocation, equipment scheduling, and path planning. This stud...
This paper addresses the capacitated vehicle routing problem with time-window and three-dimensional loading constraints in land–sea transport (3L-CVRPTWLS, which is an extension of the 3L-CVRP) to minimize the total cost of land–sea trans...
This paper investigates a tri-objective green flexible job shop rescheduling problem under urgent order insertion and multi-speed machining conditions, where makespan, total energy consumption, and total tool wear are jointly optimized. First, an eve...
