Aspects and Views on Mathematical Optimization in Logistics in the Chemical Process Industry

Authors: Josef Kallrath

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 9261, Models and Algorithms for Optimization in Logistics (2009)


Abstract
In large chemical companies, traffic logistics and supply chain logistics contain many decision problems which are suitable to be solved by mathematical optimization. The objectives are to exploit resources (traffic infrastructure such as roads and rail lines, production equipment) in a cost optimal way and to maximize profit. We present two cases: optimal sequences of rail cars in trains visiting various plants in a large company complex, and production and distribution planning. Finally, we discuss the importance of data structure and the consequences of differences between the "booking world" view of systems such as SAP and the "physical world" mapped into mathematical optimization models.
