| contents | With the increasing importance of sustainability, warehouse sharing arises as a possible way to improve the efficiency of the existing logistics system. This paper studied the warehouse sharing platform systems (WSPS) and investigated its supply chain network, including factories, warehouses, and customers. We proposed an enhanced modelling approach for the warehouse sharing platform system design problem (WSPSDP) using the multi-allocation hub location routing problem framework. New elements such as inter-warehouse transportation and multiple-allocation scheme were added compared to the existing WSPS model. Then an adaptive large neighbourhood decomposition search heuristic was applied to solve our problem. Computational experiments were conducted on different-sized instances for comparison with the WSPS model without inter-warehouse transportation and the WSPS model with single-allocation scheme. The results suggested that our proposed WSPSDP model is more cost-efficient than the existing WSPS models, and it has the potential to promote the utilisation of existing cheap idle warehouses. |
