An implementation of differential evolution algorithm for a single product and single period multi-echelon supply chain network model

In this paper, five variants of Differential Evolution (DE) algorithms are proposed to solve the multi-echelon supply chain network optimization problem. Supply chain network composed of different stages which involves products, services and information flow between suppliers and customers, is a val...
