Abstract:

The goal of this paper is to tackle joint decisions in assigning production and organizing transportation for single product in a production-transportation network system with multiple manufacturers and multiple demands. In order to meet practical situation, assume that the variant costs and the amounts of the consumption of raw materials that every manufacturer produces per unit product are all uncertain variables in manufacturing processes; meanwhile, the demands that each destination needs are random variables in the transportation problem. Then, a joint optimization model of production and transportation is developed, in which the uncertain chance constraint and the stochastic chance constraint are applied in the manufacturing processes and the transporting processes, respectively, and transformed into a deterministic form by taking expected value on objective function and confidence level on the constraint functions. Finally, a practical example points out the effectiveness of our model.
