چکیده

Team Orienteering with Decreasing Profits (DP-TOP) extends the classical Team Orienteering problem (TOP) by considering the profit of each client as a decreasing function of time. It consists of maximizing the sum of collected profit by a fixed number K of vehicles, visiting each client at most once. In this work, we present lower bounds based on a Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition and column generation as well as upper bounds obtained by an evolutionary local search approach (ELS).
