Parallel Solution Methods for Vehicle Routing Problems
Parallel solution methods contribute to efficiently address large and complex combinatorial optimization problems, vehicle routing problems in particular. Parallel exact and heuristic methods for VRP variants are increasingly being proposed and the pace seem to increase in recent years. “New” strategies have been proposed and many of the best known solutions to classical formulations have been ...
متن کاملFormulations and Solution Algorithms for Production and Inventory Routing Problems
An integrated supply chain operational planning system is a tool that is used to jointly optimize several planning decisions by capturing the additional bene ts of coordination between sequential activities in the chain. In recent years, many companies have set up an integrated planning system and achieved multi-million cost savings. The key to success is an application that is not only able to...
متن کاملA unified solution framework for multi-attribute vehicle routing problems
Vehicle routing attributes are extra characteristics and decisions that complement the academic problem formulations and aim to properly account for real-life application needs. Hundreds of methods have been introduced in recent years for specific attributes, but the development of a single, general-purpose algorithm, which is both efficient and applicable to a wide family of variants remains a...
متن کاملSolution methodologies for vehicle routing problems with stochastic demand
We present solution methodologies for vehicle routing problems (VRPs) with stochastic demand, with a specific focus on the vehicle routing problem with stochastic demand (VRPSD) and the vehicle routing problem with stochastic demand and duration limits (VRPSDL). The VRPSD and the VRPSDL are fundamental problems underlying many operational challenges in the fields of logistics and supply chain m...
متن کاملThe exact solution of several classes of inventory-routing problems
In order to be competitive companies need to take advantage of synergetic interactions between different decision areas. Two of these are related to the distribution and inventory management processes. Inventory-Routing Problems (IRPs) arise when inventory and routing decisions must be taken simultaneously, which yields a difficult combinatorial optimization problem. In this paper, we propose a...
