In this paper, Glowworm swarm optimisation (GSO) is proposed to solve nonlinear fixed charge transportation problem (NLFCTP) in a single stage supply chain network. In a fixed charge transportation problem, fixed cost is incurred for every route, along with the variable cost that is proportional...
