Popis: The research aims to minimize the total costs and reach an optimal solution in transporting the gasoline product from the main warehouses in Baghdad Governorate to filling stations: by relying on the dataset obtained from the Oil Products Distribution Company of the Iraqi Ministry of Oil, by using the traditional method (linear programming) and the modern method (genetic algorithm), and then compare them to help decision-makers make the right decision. The preference was achieved for the modern method, which was able to make a slight improvement in the final results. This is because the mathematical model of the problem is a linear model, where the cost in the technique of linear programming (1,424,165) dinars and in the technique of the genetic algorithm (1,424,157) dinars.
