| Mathematical programming is an effective approach to estimate the optimal solution for a cost minimization problem of the firm. Using mathematical programming algorithms, we are able to find a solution for the facility location problem which attempts to calculate the optimum warehouse deployment, considering the size of the warehouses and the cost of their construction, while also regarding the distance of customers from the warehouse and the cost of transporting the goods. This should in effect minimize the cost of shipping goods to customers.
The main goal of this bachelor thesis is to propose a solution for the delivery cost minimization problem using mathematical programming. Specifically, it will be solving the facility location problem for a firm which will be trying to use an alternative form of transportation of either drones or robots, and then further on compare the results with the current delivery methods. |
