    • An extended model for disaster relief operations used on the Hagibis typhoon case in Japan 

      Hrydziushka, Darya; Pasha, Urooj; Hoff, Arild (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      This paper presents a generalization of a previously defined lexicographical dynamic flow model based on multi-objective optimization for solving the multi-commodity aid distribution problem in the aftermath of a catastrophe. ...
    • An application of the multi-depot heterogeneous fixed fleet open vehicle routing problem 

      Husakou, Anatol; Hvattum, Lars Magnus; Danielsen, Ketil; Hoff, Arild (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      This work describes an application of a multi-depot heterogeneous fixed fleet open vehicle routing problem. A contractor owns a fleet of vehicles with different capacities and running costs. The fleet is used to transport ...
    • Exponential extrapolation memory for tabu search 

      Bentsen, Håkon; Hoff, Arild; Hvattum, Lars Magnus (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Tabu search is a well-established metaheuristic framework for solving hard combinatorial optimization problems. At its core, the method uses different forms of memory to guide a local search through the solution space so ...
    • Production planning and control as routing in manufacturing networks 

      Bach, Terje; Jæger, Bjørn; Hoff, Arild (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)
      In this paper, we explore the use of network routing for production planning and control in manufacturing of complex industrial products. Such a product is the result of a joint effort of many manufacturing companies; each ...
    • Quantity-predictive vehicle routing problem for smart waste collection 

      Hrabec, Dušan; Senland, Preben; Nevrly, Vlastimir; Popela, Pavel; Hoff, Arild; Šomplák, Radovan; Pavlas, Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      The current trends in the field of waste management involves the use of modern technologies such as wireless sensors. The smart waste management with Sensor Technology involves an integration of the so-called smart trash ...
    • The shrinking and expanding heuristic for the fleet size and mix vehicle routing problem 

      Pasha, Urooj; Hoff, Arild; Løkketangen, Arne (Journal article, 2013)
      The FSMVRP (Fleet Size and Mix Vehicle Routing Problem) is a variant of the Classical Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem, CVRP. We suggest a new methodology, called the Shrinking and Expanding Heuristic (SEH) which is ...
