Abstract When considering real-world scheduling or routing problems, we generally face complex requirements that do not fit the standard problems assumed in the literature. Furthermore, scheduling and routing decisions which arise, for example, in the context of multi-site scheduling problems or the planning of supply chain operations, are often interdependent and lead to performance losses if they are considered separately using hierarchical planning approaches. This chapter introduces the resource transfer problem, a unifying modeling framework for integrated scheduling and routing problems. The first part is devoted to the generic problem. In the second part, we present a conceptual model and a mixed-integer problem formulation. The third part of this chapter is concerned with a graph-theoretical representation for instances of the resource transfer problem.
