Enhanced Techniques For Determining Initial Feasible Solutions In Classical Transportation Models

Abstract

This research paper has presented the effective algorithm for the solution to the Transportation Problem (TP), with an emphasis the importance of a properly formulated constraint system. The main purpose of this research paper is to introduce a logical and applicative method for obtaining  the Initial Basic Feasible Solution (IBFS) to any TP. To demonstrate the effectiveness  of the method introduced, a numerical example is presented here. Additionally, a comparison study is also presented to assess the performance of the new method in comparison to traditional methods. The results show that the proposed method gives the better and optimal solution for the mentioned numerical problem.
