Researchers have introduced a new framework called the Decomposition-Driven Framework with Value Function Approximation (DDF-VFA) to address the complexities of dynamic order fulfillment operations. This framework models the problem as a Markov decision process, separating the order preparation and delivery stages. DDF-VFA optimizes the delivery policy while treating preparation as a constraint, utilizing a large-neighborhood search and neural-network value function approximation. Numerical results on real-world datasets demonstrate that DDF-VFA outperforms existing benchmarks that manage the two stages independently or jointly without decomposition. AI
