Resumen de Optimization and cooperation with logistics applications

Laura Davila Pena

• Operations Research (OR) is a discipline in which advanced analytical methods are developed and used to solve problems and aid in decision-making. There are a wide variety of fields where OR can be applied, one of which is logistics. Optimizing and scheduling a certain network is a fundamental task, accomplished by proposing models and solving algorithms for each particular situation. Logistic problems are also often treated by the practitioners of OR from a cooperative standpoint, which can be approached through game theory. This thesis addresses several OR and game theoretical problems that have applications in the logistics domain. The performance of the proposed methodologies is analyzed and illustrated with real data applications.
