Cutting and Packing (C&P) problems are hard combinatorial optimization problems that arise in the context of several manufacturing and process industries or in their supply chains. These problems occur whenever a bigger object or space has to be divided into smaller parts, so that waste is minimized. This is the case when cutting paper rolls in the paper industry, large wood boards into s…
The focus of this proposal is the transfer of mathematical knowledge to other areas of science, technology and industry, through a structured research center specially tailored for this purpose. All mathematical knowledge is ultimately applicable, if not directly, through other areas of knowledge. In some areas the application of mathematics is almost immediate. However, the practical imp…
During his stay at the Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science of the University of São Paulo (ICMC/USP) Prof. José Fernando Oliveira of the Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto - Portugal (FEUP) will participate both in research and teaching. His stay at the ICMC aims an effective cooperation in two projects that will start in March 2013 (a post-doc project and a doctorate p…
The foundry industry produces a wide range of items found in various sectors of the economy. As this industry is important for the Brazilian economy, studies aiming at improving its efficiency are fundamental to ensure its competitiveness worldwide. As highlighted in the literature, one of the main factors that influences production in the sector is production planning. This project deals…
During her stay at the Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science of the University of São Paulo (ICMC / USP) Prof. Maria Antonia Carravilla of the Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto - Portugal (FEUP) will participate both in research and teaching. Her stay at the ICMC aims to continue on-going research. In particular, the paper The Dotted-Board Model - A new MIP model for the…

Nowadays, the frenetic growth of e-commerce is a well-known fact, and consequently, many companies have been facing complex fulfillment challenges. In this context, mathematical optimization can be a powerful tool for supporting the decision-making process, as in warehousing and distribution of goods. This work intends to study a delivery planning problem of distribution centers based on …
Over the past two decades, scientific research has indicated that children walking or cycling to school has physical benefits, reducing their stress levels. However, due to the lack of safety on the streets and the habit of using cars, even parents living within walking distances from school choose to drive or use school transportation. As highlighted in the literature, besides helping to…
The packing problem considering irregular items is one of the challenges of the clothing industry. In this industry, for the quality of the final product, all the items that compose it must come from the same batch of fabric; for example, the sleeves, the front, and the back parts of a T-shirt must be cut together. In general, the cutting process is performed by placing the fabric on a ta…
Problems of cutting irregular pieces consist of cutting an object a given set of pieces with irregular shapes. The cutting pattern found is optimal for some objective function to be defined. This problem has a wide variety of applications in furniture, textiles, and leather cutting. However, the need to readjust production planning due to uncertainties has not yet been explored in the lit…
Vehicle routing problem is a classical problem of integer programming area. In the literature, its most frequent main is to find routes that minimize the total transportation cost of people or goods. There are many variants of the problem, among which the transport of people is intensely studied. Furthermore, it allows reducing CO2 emission, sound pollution and the time spent by people in…

This project is part of a Ph.D. research that mixes cross-docking decisions with the vehicle routing problem for retailer networks. Two mathematical formulations have already been developed to model this problem. Computational tests showed that only instances with a few customers can be solved in reasonable time. Therefore, the objectives of this stage of the research are to develop a str…
One of the goals of city logistics is to provide transportation of goods in urban environments minimising negative side effects to the population. For this, multi-tiered logistic systems are an efficient option. In such systems, goods are consolidated in cross-docks in the outer tiers and vehicles suited to denser urban areas perform the last-mile delivery. In this sense, we aim at integr…
Having great applicability in industries, the packing problem aims to define a cutting plane of large objects to obtain small pieces minimizing, for instance, raw material waste. The main characteristic and obstacle of the irregular strip packing problem, studied in this research, is the irregular shape of its pieces. In some industries, after a cutting plane has been defined, a second pr…
