| Abstract |
In this paper, the problem of locating sugar
cane loading station is addressed. The sugar cane loading
station is the place for gathering sugar cane from small size
fielders in remote areas. Then, the collected sugar cane is
transported to sugar mill by the large size truck. An
algorithm based on the relaxation of the mathematical model
is developed to solve the problem. The objective function is
to minimize total cost, which is the cost of enlarging the
existing loading station, the cost of establishing new loading
station, and the cost of transporting sugar cane from fields
to loading stations and from loading stations to sugar mills.
The results showed that the developed model provided
solutions that are slightly different from optimal solution
within short computation time. |
