Abstract:In this research, we develop an extension of the stochastic routing model with a fixed capacity for the distribution of perishable products with a time window. We use theoretical probability distributions to model the life of transported products and travel times in the network. Our main objective is to maximize the probability of delivering products within the established deadline with a certain level of customer service. Our project is justified from the perspective of reducing the pollution caused by greenh… Show more
