Lower bounds and heuristics for the Windy Rural Postman Problem
In this paper we present several heuristic algorithms and a cutting-plane algorithm for the Windy Rural Postman Problem. This problem contains a big number of important Arc Routing Problems as special cases and has very interesting real-life applications. Extensive computational experiments over different sets of instances are also presented.
متن کاملNew heuristic algorithms for the windy rural postman problem
In this paper we deal with the Windy Rural Postman Problem. This problem generalizes several important Arc Routing Problems and has interesting real-life applications. Here, we present several heuristics whose study has lead to the design of a Scatter Search algorithm for the Windy Rural Postman Problem. Extensive computational experiments over different sets of instances, with sizes up to 988 ...
متن کاملHeuristics for a dynamic rural postman problem
This paper presents a very special cutting path determination problem appearing in a high precision tools factory, and provides two new heuristics for its resolution. Particular features of both the cutting process, and of the material to be cut, bring in a set of unusual constraints, when compared with other cutting processes, which confer additional complexity and originality to the problem. ...
متن کاملNew results on the Windy Postman Problem
In this paper we study the Windy Postman Problem. This is a well known Arc Routing Problem which contains the Mixed Chinese Postman Problem as a special case. We present here a full description of the polyhedron associated to the Windy Postman Problem over graphs with up to 4 vertices and 10 edges. We introduce two new families of facet-inducing inequalities and we prove that these inequalities...
متن کاملA branch-and-price algorithm for the windy rural postman problem
In this paper, we propose an exact solution method for the Windy Rural Postman Problem (WRPP). The motivation to study this problem comes from some real-life applications, such as garbage collecting in a predefined sector with hills, where the traversing or the servicing speed can change following the direction. We present a Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition and a branch-and-price algorithm to solve ...
