A comparison of two different formulations for arc routing problems on mixed graphs
Arc Routing Problems on mixed graphs have been modelled in the literature either using just one variable per edge or associating to each edge two variables, each one representing its traversal in the corresponding direction. In this paper, and using the Mixed General Routing Problem as an example, we compare theoretical and computationally both formulations as well as the lower bounds obtained ...
متن کاملExact methods based on node routing formulations for arc routing problems
This paper proposes a new transformation of arc routing problems into equivalents node routing problems, with emphasis on the transformation of Capacitated Arc Routing Problems (CARP) into Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problems (CVRP). For this last case, an analogue transformation has already been proposed in Pearn et al. [21], where each required CARP arc was mapped onto a triplet of CVRP nodes...
متن کاملApproximation Algorithms for Mixed, Windy, and Capacitated Arc Routing Problems
We show that any α(n)-approximation algorithm for the n-vertex metric asymmetric Traveling Salesperson problem yields O(α(C))-approximation algorithms for various mixed, windy, and capacitated arc routing problems. Herein, C is the number of weakly-connected components in the subgraph induced by the positive-demand arcs, a number that can be expected to be small in applications. In conjunction ...
متن کاملProfitable Mixed Capacitated Arc Routing and Related Problems
Mixed Capacitated Arc Routing Problems (MCARP) aim to identify a set of vehicle trips that, starting and ending at a depot node, serve a given number of links, regarding the vehicles capacity, and minimizing a cost function. If both profits and costs on arcs are considered, the Profitable Mixed Capacitated Arc Routing Problem (PMCARP) may be defined. We present compact flow based models for the...
متن کاملthe evaluation and comparison of two esp textbooks available on the iranian market for teaching english to the students of medicine
abstract this study evaluated and compared medical terminology and english for the students of medicine (ii) as two representatives of the textbooks available on the iranian market for teaching english to the students of medicine. this research was performed on the basis of a teacher’s and a number of students’ attitudes and the students’ needs analysis for two reasons: first, to investigate...
