A mixed integer programming model is proposed to solve supplier selection and order allocation problem for a manufacturer. In this model, quality, delivery performance, and purchasing cost are chosen as three criteria to select suppliers and set as objectives. Inventory level, goods flow balance, service level, supply ability, and marketing demand are considered as constraints. In the proposed model, the three objectives have different weights which are given by experts. However, the experts score the weight by many subjective factors. So, the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) based approach is used to calculate the weighted values. In the end, a case study illustrates the advantage of weighted values solved by FAHP. And the result shows that a weighted model is more advantageous for supplier selection and order allocation.

The allocation of the demand for electricity using mixed integer programmingIn this paper the authors have investigated the use of mixed integer programming to solve an allocation problem that exists in the Electricity Department of the Pretoria Municipality. In the Pretoria supply area the demand for electricity is provided for by using the municipal power stations Rooiwal and Pretoria West and by obtaining power from Escom. Every year the Electricity Department must decide how the monthly demand (12 months ahead) for electricity must be allocated between their own power stations and the supply from Escom.The allocation must be done in such a way that certain requirements are met. These requirements refer to the demand for electricity, the availability of the municipality's own generators, the capacity of the two power stations and a so called supply requirement laid down by Escom. A mixed integer programming model was developed in which these requirements were catered for and in which the running costs were minimized. Results obtained thus far from the model indicate that it can provide the Electricity Department with a useful tool in solving a complicated allocation problem.

At present, there are many problems existing in railway stations, such as excessive numbers and over-crowded layout, which seriously affect the scale benefit generation and rapid expansion of rail freight capacity. Aimed at these problems, a Mixed Integer programming model is proposed. Taking Lanzhou train operation depot for example, applying lingo software, the layout of freight station is obtained.
