Local Deliveries Time Optimization for Cities with Unstable Traffic
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper deals with delivery and vehicle unloading time importance for local distribution problems within practicable conditions. It is necessary to optimize both vehicle’s driving time and unloading time to organize local circular route in optimal way. The paper’s author recommends registering vehicle unloading time for the each object within the particular route. It is also recommended to divide all roads into small sections. After that it is easy to define driving time for each section in particular hours. The author also advises the investigation of distribution processes’ service quality as well as distribution costs to improve circular route planning for local deliveries.

متن کاملFinding the Shortest Hamiltonian Path for Iranian Cities Using Hybrid Simulated Annealing and Ant Colony Optimization Algorithms
The traveling salesman problem is a well-known and important combinatorial optimization problem. The goal of this problem is to find the shortest Hamiltonian path that visits each city in a given list exactly once and then returns to the starting city. In this paper, for the first time, the shortest Hamiltonian path is achieved for 1071 Iranian cities. For solving this large-scale problem, tw...
