Abstract

In this research, a truck scheduling problem for a cross-docking system with multiple receiving and shipping docks is studied. Until recently, single-dock cross-docking problems are studied mostly. This research is focused on the multiple-dock problems. The objective of the problem is to determine the best docking sequences of inbound and outbound trucks to the receiving and shipping docks, respectively, which minimize the maximal completion time. We propose a new hybrid genetic algorithm to solve this problem. This genetic algorithm improves the solution quality through the population scheme of the nested structure and the new product routing heuristic. To avoid unnecessary infeasible solutions, a linked-chromosome representation is used to link the inbound and outbound truck sequences, and locus-pairing crossovers and mutations for this representation are proposed. As a result of the evaluation of the benchmark problems, it shows that the proposed hybrid GA provides a superior solution compared to the existing heuristics.
