Traceable Closed-Loop Supply Chain Network Design

In this paper, we have presented traceable closed-loop supply chain (TCLSC) problem via RFID system in supply chain network. TCLSC can track items not only in forward logistic, but also in backward logistic continued until collection and recycle centres. Therefore, it can improve the functionality of supply chain consist of acceleration of logistic process, prevention of missing items in backward logistic, alternation of information between backward logistic echelons, and so forth. In order to solve the model, a vibration damping optimization algorithm is applied. The results demonstrated the applicability of the proposed model.
