Abstract:

The paper presents a concept and application of a hybrid multi-agent approach to modeling and optimization the supply chain problems. Two environments (mathematical programming (MP) and constraint logic programming (CLP)) and two types of agents were integrated. This integration and hybridization, complemented with an adequate transformation of the problem, facilitates a significant reduction of the combinatorial problem. The whole process takes place at the implementation layer, which makes it possible to use the structure of the problem being solved, implementation environments and the very data. The strengths of MP and CLP, in which constraints are treated in a different way and different methods are implemented, were combined to use the strengths of both. The proposed approach is particularly important for the decision models with an objective function and many discrete decision variables added up in multiple constraints. The presented multi-agent approach will be compared with classical mathematical programming on the same data sets and models. In addition, the proposed approach will be used for modelling and optimization of the hybrid model, which has not only linear constraints but also logical constraints. (C) 2014 The Authors.
