Abstract

This paper introduces a joint optimization problem of production and ship** for overseas small orders considering less-than-container loading (LCL) in manufacturing enterprises. The problem consists of finding a production schedule together with a LCL ship** scheme simultaneously to minimize the total cost. An integer programming model is developed, and the genetic algorithm of enhanced elite reservation (SEGA) is used to solve large-sized instances. Besides, the performance of SEGA is compared with the classical genetic algorithm (SGA) and stallion genetic algorithm (stud GA). It is statistically shown that SEGA outperforms other algorithms in finding near-optimal solutions.
