Rémy DUPAS

Rémy DUPAS is an Associate Professor with HDR (Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches) specializing in operations research, scheduling algorithms, and vehicle routing optimization. His work focuses on dynamic systems, genetic algorithms, and real-time logistics solutions. He has contributed extensively to the field through publications in journals like European Journal of Operational Research and International Journal of Innovative Computing and Applications.

His research interests include vehicle routing problems (VRP), cyclic scheduling in manufacturing systems, and metaheuristics for dynamic optimization. He has developed innovative approaches using genetic algorithms and neural networks to address real-world logistics challenges, such as time-dependent travel times and flexible time windows.

He has advised four PhD students, including Xin ZHAO (2004–2008), Haiyan HOUSROUM (2002–2005), and Guillaume CAVORY (1997–2000), focusing on topics like dynamic vehicle routing and evolutionary algorithms. His HDR thesis, Amélioration de performance des systèmes de production : apport des algorithmes évolutionnistes aux problèmes d’ordonnancement cycliques et flexibles, underscores his expertise in optimizing industrial systems.

Key contributions include book chapters on metaheuristics for vehicle routing in dynamic contexts and conferences on topics like the traveling repairman problem and simulation platforms for dynamic vehicle tours.
