    The problem reduction graph (PRG) is a model for formally describing the reduction processes of combinatorial optimization problems and systematically deriving efficient algorithms for the problems. The paper applies the model for several optimization problems including vehicle loading, vehicle routing, and warehouse location, which are typical problems in the domain of logistics. We work out their problem-solving algorithms by specification transformation and derivation, and show that the model is capable of developing algorithms covering classic design tactics including branch-and-bound, greedy, and dynamic programming.
