Description
A transportation problem basically deals with the problem, which aims to find the best way to fulfill the demand of n demand points using the capacities of m supply points. While trying to find the best way, generally a variable cost of shipping the product from one supply point to a demand point or a similar constraint should be taken into consideration.

Transportation tableau
A transportation problem is specified by the supply, the demand, and the shipping costs. So the relevant data can be summarized in a transportation tableau. The transportation tableau implicitly expresses the supply and demand constraints and the shipping cost between each demand and supply point.

Solution
1. Decision Variable:
Since we have to determine how much electricity is sent from each plant to each city; Xij = Amount of electricity produced at plant i and sent to city j X14 = Amount of electricity produced at plant 1 and sent to city 4

.
2. Objective function
Since we want to minimize the total cost of shipping from plants to cities; Minimize Z = 8X11+6X12+10X13+9X14 +9X21+12X22+13X23+7X24 +14X31+9X32+16X33+5X34

.
3. Supply Constraints
Since each supply point has a limited production capacity; X11+X12+X13+X14 <= 35 X21+X22+X23+X24 <= 50 X31+X32+X33+X34 <= 40

.
4. Demand Constraints
Since each supply point has a limited production capacity; X11+X21+X31 >= 45 X12+X22+X32 >= 20 X13+X23+X33 >= 30 X14+X24+X34 >= 30

.
5. Sign Constraints
Since a negative amount of electricity can not be shipped all Xijs must be non negative; Xij >= 0 (i= 1,2,3; j= 1,2,3,4)

According to the explanations in the previous slide we can set x11=3 (meaning demand of demand point 1 is satisfied by supply point 1).

After we check the east and south cells, we saw that we can go east (meaning supply point 1 still has capacity to fulfill some demand).

After applying the same procedure, we saw that we can go south this time (meaning demand point 2 needs more supply by supply point 2).

After that, as in the Northwest Corner Method we should cross out row i and column j and reduce the supply or demand of the noncrossed-out row or column by the value of Xij. Then we will choose the cell with the minimum cost of shipping from the cells that do not lie in a crossed-out row or column and we will repeat the procedure.

3. Vogels Method
Begin with computing each row and column a penalty. The penalty will be equal to the difference between the two smallest shipping costs in the row or column. Identify the row or column with the largest penalty. Find the first basic variable which has the smallest shipping cost in that row or column. Then assign the highest possible value to that variable, and cross-out the row or column as in the previous methods. Compute new penalties and use the same procedure.

Step 4. Find the odd cells whose variable assumes the smallest value. Call this value . The variable corresponding to this odd cell will leave the basis. To perform the pivot, decrease the value of each odd cell by and increase the value of each even cell by . The variables that are not in the loop remain unchanged. The pivot is now complete. If =0, the entering variable will equal 0, and an odd variable that has a current value of 0 will leave the basis. In this case a degenerate bfs existed before and will result after the pivot. If more than one odd cell in the loop equals , you may arbitrarily choose one of these odd cells to leave the basis; again a degenerate bfs will result

Assignment Problems
Example: Machineco has four jobs to be completed. Each machine must be assigned to complete one job. The time required to setup each machine for completing each job is shown in the table below. Machinco wants to minimize the total setup time needed to complete the four jobs.

The Model
According to the setup table Machincos problem can be formulated as follows (for i,j=1,2,3,4):
min Z 14 X 11 5 X 12 8 X 13 7 X 14 2 X 21 12 X 22 6 X 23 5 X 24 7 X 31 8 X 32 3 X 33 9 X 34 2 X 41 X 42 6 X 43 10 X 44 s.t. X 11 X 12 X 13 X 14 1 X 21 X 22 X 23 X 24 1 X 31 X 32 X 33 X 34 1 X 41 X 42 X 43 X 44 1 X 11 X 21 X 31 X 41 1 X 12 X 22 X 32 X 42 1 X 13 X 23 X 33 X 43 1 X 14 X 24 X 34 X 44 1

For the model on the previous page note that: Xij=1 if machine i is assigned to meet the demands of job j Xij=0 if machine i is not assigned to meet the demands of job j In general an assignment problem is balanced transportation problem in which all supplies and demands are equal to 1.

This is a classical problem. Research on the assignment problem predates research on LPs. Very efficient special purpose solution techniques exist.
10 years ago, Yusin Lee and J. Orlin solved a problem with 2 million nodes and 40 million arcs in hour.

Although the transportation simplex appears to be very efficient, there is a certain class of transportation problems, called assignment problems, for which the transportation simplex is often very inefficient. For that reason there is an other method called The Hungarian Method. The steps of The Hungarian Method are as listed below: Step1. Find a bfs. Find the minimum element in each row of the mxm cost matrix. Construct a new matrix by subtracting from each cost the minimum cost in its row. For this new matrix, find the minimum cost in each column. Construct a new matrix (reduced cost matrix) by subtracting from each cost the minimum cost in its column.
.
Step2. Draw the minimum number of lines (horizontal and/or vertical) that are needed to cover all zeros in the reduced cost matrix. If m lines are required , an optimal solution is available among the covered zeros in the matrix. If fewer than m lines are required, proceed to step 3. Step3. Find the smallest nonzero element (call its value k) in the reduced cost matrix that is uncovered by the lines drawn in step 2. Now subtract k from each uncovered element of the reduced cost matrix and add k to each element that is covered by two lines. Return to step2. 50

Transshipment Problems
A transportation problem allows only shipments that go directly from supply points to demand points. In many situations, shipments are allowed between supply points or between demand points. Sometimes there may also be points (called transshipment points) through which goods can be transshipped on their journey from a supply point to a demand point. Fortunately, the optimal solution to a transshipment problem can be found by solving a transportation problem.

Transshipment Problem
An extension of a transportation problem
More general than the transportation problem in that in this problem there are intermediate transshipment points. In addition, shipments may be allowed between supply points and/or between demand points
LP Formulation
Supply point: it can send goods to another point but cannot receive goods from any other point Demand point It can receive goods from other points but cannot send goods to any other point Transshipment point: It can both receive goods from other points send goods to other points
52
.
The following steps describe how the optimal solution to a transshipment problem can be found by solving a transportation problem. Step1. If necessary, add a dummy demand point (with a supply of 0 and a demand equal to the problems excess supply) to balance the problem. Shipments to the dummy and from a point to itself will be zero. Let s= total available supply. Step2. Construct a transportation tableau as follows: A row in the tableau will be needed for each supply point and transshipment point, and a column will be needed for each demand point and transshipment point.
53
.
Each supply point will have a supply equal to its original supply, and each demand point will have a demand to its original demand. Let s= total available supply. Then each transshipment point will have a supply equal to (points original supply)+s and a demand equal to (points original demand)+s. This ensures that any transshipment point that is a net supplier will have a net outflow equal to points original supply and a net demander will have a net inflow equal to points original demand. Although we dont know how much will be shipped through each transshipment point, we can be sure that the total amount will not exceed s.

Transshipment Example
Example 5: Widgetco manufactures widgets at two factories, one in Memphis and one in Denver. The Memphis factory can produce as 150 widgets, and the Denver factory can produce as many as 200 widgets per day. Widgets are shipped by air to customers in LA and Boston. The customers in each city require 130 widgets per day. Because of the deregulation of airfares, Widgetco believes that it may be cheaper first fly some widgets to NY or Chicago and then fly them to their final destinations. The cost of flying a widget are shown next. Widgetco wants to minimize the total cost of shipping the required widgets to customers.

Invalid for multiple commodities: (UNLESS transporting any one of the multiple commodities is completely independent of transporting any other commodity and hence can be treated by itself alone)
Example: transporting product 1 and product 2 from the supply points to the demand points where the total amount (of the two products) transported on a link is subject to a capacity constraint Example: where economy of scale can be achieved by transporting the two products on the same link at a larger total volume and at a lower unit cost of transportation
