The raw material purchasing (RMP) problem is to determine the purchasing quantities of raw materials in given periods or cycles. Raw material purchasing optimization is crucial for large-scale steel plants because it is closely related to the supply of raw materials and cost savings. The raw material purchasing of large-scale steel enterprises is characterized by many varieties, large quantities, and high costs. The RMP objective is to minimize the total purchasing cost consisting of the price of raw materials, purchasing set-up costs, and inventory costs and meet product demand. We present a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model and a column generation (CG) solution for the resulting optimization problem. The column generation algorithm is the generalization of the branch & bound algorithm with solving the linear programming (LP) relaxation of MILP using column generation (CG), and its advantage is to handle large-sized MILPs. Experimental results show the effectiveness and efficiency of the solution.

The project managers often face challenging due to a scarcity of resources in construction management. Levelling the used resources in multiple projects is a frequently encountered problem in construction areas and manufacturing sectors. This study proposes a robust forensic-based investigation (FBI) algorithm for resource leveling in multiple projects with considerations of different objective functions of resource graphs. The fuzzy c-means clustering approach is fused into the main operation of the FBI to enhance the rate of convergence by utilizing population information. The scheduling examines different objective functions for optimizing resource profile selection. Two application case studies are used to demonstrate the performance of the improved optimization algorithm in dealing with the resource-leveling problem in multiple projects. Experimental findings and statistical comparisons demonstrated that the developed FFBI could acquire high quality solutions and surpass those of compared optimization algorithms.
