Two_Stages_Optimization_Problem_New_Variant_of_Bin_Packing_Problem_for_Decision_Making.pdf | 96.66 KB |
In this paper, we present a new multi-criteria assignment problem that groups characteristics from the well known bin packing problem (BPP) and generalized assignment problem (GAP). Similarities and differences between these problems are discussed, and a new variant of BPP is presented. The new variant will be called generalized assignment problem with identified first-use bins (GAPIFB). The GAPIFB will be used to supply decision makers with quantitative and qualitative indicators in order to optimize a business process. An algorithm based on the GAP problem model and on GAPIFB is proposed.
