The long-term objective of my research program is to develop methods to facilitate the rapid design of production and distribution facilities. This research proposal aims to develop and extend optimization methods for planning and design problems in production and distribution systems. The research described in the proposal covers two broad areas: facility design and distribution systems design. In facilities design, two specific research themes will be explored: F1) Multi-objective dynamic production systems design to deal with uncertainties. The plan is to study this problem by taking into account recourse opportunities. F2) Multi-objective product slotting in distribution centres to minimize picking distance and congestion. In the area of distribution systems design, the specific themes addressed are: S1) Computationally effective methods for order promising in supply networks using clearing functions to model the queuing effects of throughput. S2) Modelling the highly modularized Physical Internet distribution system to understand its behaviour. ***The basic methodologies employed in the fields of industrial engineering and operations research such as linear and integer programming, stochastic modelling, simulation, and mathematical analysis of production and distribution systems will be used. Emphasis will be placed on computational methods to solve these models either optimally or approximately (using heuristics). ***The research themes in this research proposal have practical significance and will make an impact within the industrial engineering research community. Industry involvement in many of these areas will be sought so that the concepts and methods developed will have relevance to industry. The research carried out will advance the current state of knowledge in the domain, and contribute to the training of HQP.**

我的研究计划的长期目标是开发方法，以促进生产和分销设施的快速设计。 本研究计划旨在发展和扩展生产和配送系统规划和设计问题的优化方法。 提案中描述的研究涵盖两大领域：设施设计和配电系统设计。 在设施设计方面，将探讨两个具体的研究主题：F1）处理不确定性的多目标动态生产系统设计。 计划通过考虑到追索机会来研究这一问题。 F2）在配送中心进行多目标产品开槽，以最大限度地减少拣选距离和拥堵。 在分销系统设计领域，具体的主题是：S1）在供应网络中使用结算功能来模拟吞吐量的排队效应的订单承诺的计算有效的方法。 S2）对高度模块化的物理互联网分发系统进行建模，以了解其行为。 *** 将使用工业工程和运筹学领域的基本方法，如线性和整数规划，随机建模，模拟以及生产和分配系统的数学分析。 重点将放在计算方法，以解决这些模型无论是最佳或近似（使用反演算法）。* 本研究计划中的研究主题具有实际意义，并将在工业工程研究界产生影响。 将寻求工业界参与其中许多领域，以便所制定的概念和方法与工业界相关。开展的研究将推进该领域的知识现状，并有助于HQP的培训。
