Stochastic Approach to Vehicle Routing Problem: Development and Theories
Stochastic Approach to Vehicle Routing Problem: Development and Theories Abstract In this article, a chance constrained (CCP) formulation of the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is proposed. The reality is that once we convert some special form of probabilistic constraint into their equivalent deterministic form then a nonlinear constraint generates. Knowing that reliable computer software...
متن کاملAn Innovative Metaheuristic Solution Approach for the Vehicle Routing Problem with Backhauls
This paper deals with a practical transportation model known as the Vehicle Routing Problem with Backhauls (VRPB), which aims at designing the minimum cost route set for satisfying both delivery and pick-up demands. In methodological terms, we propose a local search metaheuristic which explores rich solution neighborhoods composed of exchanges of variable-length customer sequences. To efficient...
متن کاملA Combined Metaheuristic Algorithm for the Vehicle Routing Problem and its Open Version
Abstract: The Open Vehicle Routing Problem (OVRP) is one of the most important extensions of the vehicle routing problem (VRP) that has many applications in industrial and service. In the VRP, a set of customers with a specified demand of goods are given and a depot where a fleet of identical capacitated vehicles is located. We are also given the ‘‘traveling costs’’ between the depot and all th...
متن کاملMetaheuristic Approaches for Vehicle Routing Problems
Routing of service vehicles are the heart of many service operations. Exclusively vehicle routing problem (VRP) plays a central role in the optimization of distribution networks. The routing of service vehicles has a major impact on the quality of the service provided. In distribution of goods and services, it is time and again required to determine a combination of least cost vehicle routes th...
متن کاملAn Intelligent Solution Approach to Vehicle Routing Problem
In this paper, we present a three-stage solution approach to the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP). In the first stage, the distribution area is divided into several areas based on drivers’ experiences, and the customers in each area are further segmented into groups by Fuzzy clustering. In the second stage, a depth-first search algorithm is presented to generate feasible routing schemes. In the la...
