19 MATLAB DATA PRE-PROCESSING 1. The distance between vendors that are combined is limited to 225 miles. a) For a two-stop from i to j: distance i,j < 225 b) For a three-stop from i to j and j to k: distance i,j + distance j,k < The maximum weight that a 53-foot container can withstand is 42,000 pounds. a) For a two-stop combining shipments i and j: weight i + weight j 42,000 b) For a three-stop combining shipments i, j, and k: weight i + weight j + weight k 42, The maximum volume that a 53-foot container can withstand is 3,000 cubic feet. a) For a two-stop combining shipments i and j: volume i + volume j 3,000 b) For a three-stop combining shipments i, j, and k: volume i + volume j + volume k 3, The shipment date can move within the same calendar week as it is currently scheduled. a) For a two-stop combining shipments i and j: i. week i = week j ii. year i = year j b) For a three-stop combining shipments i, j, and k: i. week i = week j = week k ii. year i = year j = year k 19

20 OPTIMIZATION VARIABLES Data parameters i = j = k = l = m = {shipments} Ø = {} s i,j : cost savings per truck if shipments i and j are combined s k,l,m : cost savings per truck if shipments k, l, and m are combined ORM i,j : distance ø,j + distance i,j distance ø,i ORM k,l,m : distance Ø,m + distance l,m + distance k,l distance Ø,k Decision variables x i,j = 1, if a truck drives directly from shipment i to shipment j 0, otherwise x k,l,m = 1, if a truck drives from the origin of shipment k to shipment m to shipment l 0, otherwise 20
