Abstract

The distribution center (DC) location problem is one of the most important decisions for logistics systems. Owing to vague concept frequently represented in decision data, some new multiple criteria based decision-making model is proposed to solve the DC location problem with significant time-effectiveness under fuzzy environment. In the proposed model, we consider time penalty cost, operation cost, damage cost, infrastructure, market conditions, government policy, technical conditions and land resources from a comprehensive view. Meanwhile, trapezoidal fuzzy numbers are used to describe the delivery time window and the service level. Then, intuitionistic fuzzy sets and immune genetic algorithm are utilized to solve the model. Finally, a numerical example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
