Solving Transportation Problem Using Maximization Case in Vogel's Approximation Method

Authors(2) :-M. Roohini, P. Murugan

The transportation problem can be represented as a linear programming model in the operation research (OR). The optimization processes in mathematics, computer science and economics are solving effectively by choosing the best element from set of available alternatives elements. Find the transportation pattern that will minimize the total of the transportation cost. In this study, we used the VAM, since it generally produces better starting solution than other solving methods. We proposed a new solving method for transportation problem by using maximization case in Vogel's Approximation Method.
