GONZALEZ-LA ROTTA, Elsa Cristina  y  BECERRA-FERNANDEZ, Mauricio. Cross-docking with vehicle routing problem. A state of art review. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2017, vol.84, n.200, pp.271-280. ISSN 0012-7353.  https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v84n200.60868.

This article reviews the state of the art for the last ten years about the literature related to Cross-Docking. The Cross-Docking systems emerge as an alternative to reduce logistics costs and customer response time in some processes such as warehousing and material handling, times by reducing storage and picking, on the docks of inbound and outbound of vehicles. In the first part, the concept of Cross-Docking is developed, also its operating performance and classification. In the second part, a report on the most relevant works is done. Subsequently, it delves into the issue of vehicle routing and Cross-Docking with emphasis on methods of solution, since it is a combinatorial optimization problem classified as NP-hard. The document ends with the conclusions and discussion.

Palabras clave : Transportation; Warehousing; Logistics; Supply Chain; Vehicles.
