Optimization of Nonlinear Transport-Production Task of Medical Waste
Journal Title: Archives of Transport - Year 2012, Vol 24, Issue 3
Abstract
The paper reflects on optimization of transportation - production tasks for the processing of medical waste. For the existing network of collection points and processing plants, according to its algorithm, the optimal allocation of tasks to the cost of transport to the respective plants has to be determined. It was assumed that the functions determining the processing costs are polynomials of the second degree. To solve the problem, a program written in MatLab environment equalization algorithm based on a marginal cost JCC was used.
