Issue Date: | 2013 | Source: | 27th Annual Conference of the Belgian Operations Research Society, Kortrijk, Belgium, 7-8 February 2013 | Abstract: | In order to survive under the ever increasing pressure to operate more efficiently, transportation organisations are obliged to adopt a collaborative focus. One approach to horizontal carrier collaboration is the sharing of warehouses or distribution centres with partnering companies. In this context, this paper develops a mathematical formulation for the cooperative facility location problem and demonstrates the benefits of joint optimisation by means of a case study. In addition, total logistics costs are fairly allocated with the use of Shapley value in order to ensure cooperation stability. | Keywords: | Horizontal logistics cooperation; Cooperative facility location problem; Game theory | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/14606 | Category: | C2 | Type: | Conference Material |
