| Abstract: |
Refined oil distribution is an important issue in real-life. To optimize the refined oil distribution system, a stochastic model for the combined location-inventory problem (LIP) in a single-product multi-depot oil distribution system is developed. And a heuristics algorithm is presented to solve the model. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the validity of the model and algorithm. |
