Nacima LABADIE

Nacima Labadie is a Full Professor at the University of Technology of Troyes (UTT), leading the Industrial Engineering department since 2018. She holds roles in academic governance, including membership in UTT's Scientific Council (since 2017) and the Computer Science and Digital Society Laboratory Council (since 2021).

Her research focuses on Transportation and Distribution Logistics, Operations Research, and Numerical Optimization, with applications in vehicle routing problems, blood supply chains, and sustainable logistics. She pioneered the C2P Collaborative Network VRP and Grey Zone Two-Echelon VRP, addressing urban and eco-friendly delivery challenges.

Her work spans metaheuristic algorithms (e.g., GRASP, Iterated Local Search) for stochastic optimization and supply chain design. Notable contributions include models for biomass supply chains, blood distribution systems, and decision support platforms like AidAdom for healthcare coordination.

Recent publications emphasize low-emission logistics, urban traffic optimization, and multi-objective decision-making in complex networks. Her research integrates simulation tools (ARENA/CPLEX) and signal processing techniques for graph-based problems.

As a department head, she oversees 300+ students and guides the Optimization and Systems Safety master’s program. Her work aligns with UTT’s strategic goals in Operational Research and Digital Society initiatives.
