Abstract: This note suggests faster algorithms for two integrated production/distribution problems studied earlier, improving their complexities from O(n2V + 4) and O(n2(L + V)2) to O(n) and O(n + Vmin {V, n}) respectively, where n is the number of products to be delivered, V is the number of vehicles and L is the number of vehicle departure times.
