scheduling in the implementation of a supply chain solution, we studied
the problem of synchronized scheduling of single machine and air transportation
in supply chain management. The overall problem is decomposed into two
sub-problems, which consists of air transportation allocation problem
and a single machine scheduling problem which they are considered together.
We have taken into consideration different constraints and assumptions
in our modeling such as due window, delivery tardiness and no delivery
tardiness. For these purposes, mathematical models have been proposed
to minimize supply chain total cost which encompasses transportation,
makespan, delivery earliness tardiness and departure time earliness tardiness
costs.]]>Biskup, D. and M. Feldmann,2005162740761Blumenfeld, D.E., L.D. Burns and C.F. Daganzo,1991252327Chang, Y.C. and C.Y. Lee,2004158470487Chen, P.,20002000Chen, Z.L. and G.L.
