  • 企業在現今激烈的競爭環境下想要增加獲利,除了提高銷售量及降低生產成本外,另一方面就是提升物流的效率。因此,企業必須提供有效率的物流運籌網路來因應快速的顧客回應需求,而導入接駁式轉運中心(Cross-Docking, CD)的物流運籌網路,被視為是減少存貨和快速回應顧客多樣需求的好方法。接駁式轉運中心與車輛途程問題(Vehicle Routing Problem, VRP)結合後,最主要的概念就是讓車隊於取貨(Pickup)及送貨(Delivery)的過程中同時抵達,避免轉運中心有存貨產生,並且最小化車輛路徑距離,達到最低運輸成本與快速回應的目標。
    本研究提出以粒子群優化(Particle Swarm Optimization, PSO)結合掃描法(Sweep method)的啟發式演算法(sPSO),對具有接駁式轉運中心的車輛途程問題(VRPCD)快速提出一個近似最佳解,主要目標在於滿足所有限制條件下,達到總成本(運輸及營運)的最小化。為了驗證所提出sPSO演算法的效能,本研究與基因演算法(Genetic Algorithm, GA)做比較,求解60組車輛取貨與交貨運途的標竿問題,在每一組標竿問題中,本研究的sPSO演算法都能找出比基因演算法更好的最佳成本解,總平均成本改善率達到39.30%。相較於基因演算法,我們所提出的sPSO演算法呈現出具有相當穩健且有效搜尋全局最佳解的能力,且能更快收斂到較佳的解。


    Enterprises want to make profits in the extremely competitive environment. In addition to expanding sales and reducing manufacturing cost, the efficiency of logistics management is also considered as the additional source of profit. Increasing efficiency of logistics becomes critical in the supply chain due to customer’s quick response requirements. Therefore, Cross-docking (CD) system in the supply chain is considered a good method to reduce inventory and improve responsiveness to various customer demands. This thesis focuses on the vehicle routing problem with Cross-docking (VRPCD) aiming at synchronizing the shipments in both pickup and delivery processes concurrently. The collective effort of VRPCD is to reduce handling cost, inventory cost and transport cost to fulfill the distribution services.
    A novel algorithm, called sPSO, is proposed in thesis to solve the combinatorial optimal solution of the vehicle routing problem with Cross-docking. The sPSO method is based on the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm combined with the sweep method to quickly generate a near optimum solution. Comparisons are made between the sPSO method and the Genetic Algorithm (GA) over the experiments of various VRP pickup and delivery benchmark problems to validate the performance of the sPSO algorithm. Experiment results show that the sPSO algorithm was able to discover new solutions than the GA for all 60 benchmarks problems. Also, the computational results show that the sPSO algorithm is robust, converge fast and competitive with overall improvement of 39.30% over the GA.
