Abstract:Timber transportation is a hard task for any forest company. There are several efforts to reduce and control these costs, considering efficient equipment and optimization frameworks. Due to the pattern of combinatorial problems, the deterministic methods have a high computational effort of processing time, which generally makes their use unfeasible. An alternative procedure is applying approximation algorithms, which have efficient searches for finding feasible solutions. The present study evaluated algorithms… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
