The solution of vehicle loading problem in consigment processes with genetic algorithm approach and an application

Today many different dimensions of competition can be stated and within that highly competitive conditions small differences that can be created in similar processes between competiors may lead to favorable results. Production costs of the production companies are so close to each other. Because of that fact production companies have to improve their processes besides production too. Within these processes logistics based ones have a major part. The concept of consignment management becomes prominent between these modern strategies and techniques used logistics management Because of that reason as one of the consignment management applications that can create important cost advantages in logisitcs processes, vehicle loading and genetic algorithm that can provide an important optimization ability for the solution of that problem are considered together.
