چکیده

هدف: در این تحقیق به بهینه‎سازی مسئله بلوک‎بندی مشتریان در سیستم توزیع کالا و تخصیص هم‎زمان آنها به مراکز تأمین به‌عنوان مراکز بلوک‎ها با استفاده از مدل برنامه‎ریزی عدد صحیح مختلط پرداخته شده است. تابع هدف مسئله، به ایجاد تعادل بارکاری از طریق کمینه‌سازی تفاضل مقدار بیشینه و کمینه مشتریان تخصیص‌یافته به مراکز مختلف می‎پردازد. محدودیت‎های مسئله ساختار پیوستگی بلوک‎ها و عدم وجود سوراخ در آنها را تضمین می‎کند. همچنین تضمین تخصیص یک مرکز برای هر بلوک و تخصیص منحصر به فرد مشتریان به یک بلوک از محدودیت‎های دیگر مسئله است.
روش: با توجه به اینکه مسئله بلوک‎بندی و مکان‎یابی از مسائل ان پی سخت است، برای حل در ابعاد متوسط و بزرگ باید از الگوریتم‎های فراابتکاری استفاده کرد. بنابراین در این تحقیق برای حل مسئله، دو الگوریتم فراابتکاری گرگ خاکستری و ازدحام سالپ پیشنهاد شده است. در این پژوهش به‌منظور رفع مشکل اصلی استفاده از الگوریتم‌های فراابتکاری در مطالعات پیشین و رفع پیچیدگی به‎کارگیری ساختار مناسب برای نمایش پاسخ‎ها، در راستای تضمین ساختار پیوسته بلوک‎ها و عدم وجود سوراخ، از یک الگوریتم ابتکاری مبتنی بر کمینه درخت پوشا استفاده شده است که باعث تضمین پیوستگی بلوک‎ها می‎شود.
یافته‎ها: نتایج محاسباتی تحقیق روی مثال‎های عددی تصادفی انجام‌شده، نشان می‎دهد الگوریتم ابتکاری دارای کارایی مناسب در تولید پاسخ‎های موجه است.
نتیجه‎گیری: توسعه نتایج تحقیق می‎تواند به‌عنوان ابزار مدیریتی مناسب در اختیار مدیران بخش‎های مختلف زنجیره تأمین قرار گیرد.

چکیده [English]

Objective: In this paper, we investigate a new optimization for territory design in the distribution system and allocation of the customers to supply centers which are considered as territory centers using MIP model. The objective is to balance the work load through minimizing the maximum differences the minimum customers allocated to the various centers. The study constraints guarantee continuity of the territories and the lack of gaps in the territories. Also, other constraints include allocation of a center to each territory and exclusive allocation of each customer to only one territory.
Methods: Since, territory design and positioning are among NP-hard issues, in order to solve real-world case and big problems we have to propose meta-heuristic algorithms. For this purpose, in this paper, a grey wolf optimizer and a salp optimizer algorithm are proposed. Based on the literature review, it is very difficult to use encoding-decoding solution  without any modifier algorithm. Therefore, we design a novel solution scheme based on a minimum spanning tree in order to obviate the complexities, guarantee the continuity of the territory structures and the lack of gaps, and generate feasible solutions.
Results: Computational results on random instances showed that the proposed algorithms can effectively help to generate reasonable responses.
Conclusion: The model proposed here could be a useful tool to aid the decision-making in distribution management, as well as for the better organization of any distribution.
