Abstract
The Supply Chain network has multiple players such as the Supplier, Distribution center, Station, Port, and Customer.Two or more alternative Fleet are existing between players, so Route/Fleet selection problem has complications and difficulties. To solve this NP-hard problem, Modern Heuristics such as GA and SA has been applied, but the performance has not had enough effectiveness. In this paper, the concept of Latin square is applied to solve these problems. The proposed Algorithm consists of two parts. In the first part feasible Route/Fleet are selected by the process of Latin square. After that Genetic Algorithm (GA) is applied to solve the combination optimization problem of feasible Routes. In the final part of this paper the developed algorithm is applied to real world SC-data.
