Concluding Remarks An optimal solution model is built to serve as a future implementation reference for our global corporation client in order to achieve the most cost-effective manufacturing and distribution business planning. The model is constructed under a series of preliminaries . We considered most of the possible factors affecting optimization in models like our own, but we analyzed only the key conceptions and limitations in depth. The problem is formulated as a weighted bipartite graph representing facility layout and location planning for both the internal and external suppliers of the corporation. The formulas allow for optimization by minimizing sums based on the weights of the graph. Neither an algorithm nor an implementation was provided, and as such, the model is not meant to be used directly in real life. Instead it is meant to serve as a simplified model of a real-world problem. Jade Cheng · ICS-311 Assignment 1 · University of Hawai‘i · September 2008
