Cost Deviation Method for Solving Transportation Problems

P. Pandian

Abstract :

A new method namely, cost deviation method for solving transportation problems is proposed in which an initial feasible solution and MODI method are used. The optimality of the solution obtained by the cost deviation method of a transportation problem is analytically proved. The proposed method is illustrated with a numerical example. The proposed method can help decision makers in the logistics related issues by aiding them in the decision making process and providing an optimal solution in a simple and effective manner.
