Journal Title: Research in Logistics & Production - Year 2014, Vol 0, Issue 2
Abstract
We consider the sugar dispatching process at a sugar mill. The main goal of our work was to check an efficiency of the logistics system in the mill, find and correct the bottlenecks. Some methods for logistics processes optimization are presented. We base on the heuristics and CLP techniques for solving the scheduling problems. Some additional remarks about possibility of using the optimization methods in scheduling and logistics optimizations are presented too.
