چکیده

This paper provides an indepth review on evolution of vehicle routing problems from savings matrix to time dependent vehicle routing problems. It is suggested that as to how VRPBH framework of Goetschalckx and Jacobs-Blecha has offered better solution to routing problems that Clarke-Wright Savings matrix and with the introduction of time -window concept the result of heuristic has improved drastically. This is further extended by latest work on time dependent variable vehicle routing algorithm.

An Improved Particle Swarm Optimization for a Class of Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problems

Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is addressed to a class of problems for determining a set of vehicle routes, in which each vehicle departs from a given depot, serves a given set of customers, and returns back to the same depot. On the other hand, simultaneous delivery and pickup problems have drawn much attention in the past few years due to its high usage in real world cases. This study, therefo...

Solving the vehicle routing problem by a hybrid meta-heuristic algorithm

The vehicle routing problem (VRP) is one of the most important combinational optimization problems that has nowadays received much attention because of its real application in industrial and service problems. The VRP involves routing a fleet of vehicles, each of them visiting a set of nodes such that every node is visited by exactly one vehicle only once. So, the objective is to minimize the to...
