Abstract

Transportation Problem (TP) is a well-known basic network model that can be defined as a problem to minimize the total delivery cost. But when we apply to real world, the TP model should be extended to satisfy other additional constraints. In addition, traditional TP model does not treat the concept of opportunity loss and customer demand is always satisfied. In the real world, there are many cases where customer demand is not satisfied, and opportunity loss occurs. In this paper, we formulate a multi-period transportation problem with opportunity loss and inventory cost. To solve the problem, we designed Differential Evolution (DE) with random key-based representation as efficient solution method for proposal TP model.
