Using Advanced Tabu Search Approaches to Perform Enhanced Air Mobility Command Operational Airlift Analyses

Abstract

The work by Roesener [1] and Roesener et al. [27] documents an advanced tabu search (TS) approach to both the static and dynamic airlift loading problem. It represents an extension of Harwig's seminal work [5,19] on the two-dimensional orthogonal bin packing problem. However, in Roesener's research, additional constraints associated with military aircraft such as weight and balance had to be considered. Roesener's methodology was shown to be significantly superior to standard practices employed at the time of its development.
