Title
A Polynomial Dynamic Programming Algorithm for Crude Oil Transportation Planning.
Abstract
Crude oil transportation is a central logistics operation in petrochemical industry because its cost represents a significant part in the cost of petrochemical products. In this paper, we consider the transportation by tankers or trucks. We show that under some realistic assumptions, this problem can be transformed into a single item lot sizing problem with limited production and inventory capacit...
