      Container movement by trucks in metropolitan networks: Modeling and optimization 

      Jula, H.; Dessouky, M.; Ioannou, Petros A.; Chassiakos, Anastassios (2005)
      Container movement by trucks with time constraints at origins and destinations is modeled as an asymmetric "multi-Traveling Salesmen Problem with Time Windows" (m-TSPTW) with social constraints. A two-phase exact algorithm ...

      A heuristic solution for the empty container substitution problem 

      Chang, H.; Jula, H.; Chassiakos, Anastassios; Ioannou, Petros A. (2008)
      This paper studies substitution between empty containers of different types in an attempt to reduce the cost of empty container interchange. Since finding an optimal solution requires substantial computational efforts, a ...
