Graduation Project: Route Optimization in Timeslotting
4 weken geleden
Job Description
The e-Grocery business is experiencing rapid growth, and efficiency in delivery operations is crucial. Route optimization plays a vital role in this industry, ensuring timely and cost-effective delivery of groceries to customers.
During the continuous optimization process, the certainty of data increases over time. However, the value of an efficient plan is unclear early on when limited data is available. This raises questions about the objectives of optimization in different phases of the process.
Research Questions:
- What methods can be used to continuously optimize a gradually maturing dataset?
- Is there added value in using forecasted demand versus only using known orders?
- Are the objectives of optimization the same in all phases of the process?
- What is the value or cost of an efficient plan early in the process?
Requirements:
- You are in your final year of a Master's program in computer science, operations research, mathematics, or a related field.
- You have experience with traditional operations research methods, such as metaheuristics and local search methods.
- You have good coding skills in at least one programming language.
- You can communicate fluently in English or Dutch, both verbally and in writing.
- You are able to travel to the Zoetermeer office of ORTEC for a few days a week.
- You are available for 32-40 hours a week.
- You are available for a minimum of six months.
- You live in the Netherlands and study at a Dutch University.
What We Offer:
- Entrance to a passionate community of applied mathematicians who share a drive to improve the planet.
- Inclusion in a company founded by graduate students, which fosters a culture of excellent supervision, good internship allowance, and a fun work environment.
Upload your CV, motivation letter, and grade lists (BSc and MSc in one PDF if applicable) to apply for this opportunity. The recruitment process will consist of two online assessments, a first interview, and a second interview with a case.
