Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Humanities and Social Science - Year 2018, Vol 23, Issue 8
Abstract
Transportation problem (TP) is a special case of linear programming problem (LPP) in which cost optimization has been made on the base of demand and resources. Optimization of cost is a common objective in TP. There is a lot of work on different objectives by various researchers has been published such that minimize shipping cost, minimum deterioration while transportation, minimize delivery time, etc. Combing of more than two objectives are multi-objective transportation problem. Different approached for methods solving multi-objective transportation problem (MOTP) also discusses by various authors viz. Goal programming problem, fuzzy techniques, genetic algorithm, etc. In the present paper, we have analyzed the transportation of Urea from different Ports of Karaikal, Tuticorin and Vizagapattinam in the state of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh in India by using Multi Objective Transportation Problem to minimize the total distance as well as time and cost.
