A heuristic for the routing and carrier selection problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the problem of simultaneously selecting customers to be served by external carriers and routing a heterogeneous internal fleet. Very little attention was devoted to this problem. A recent paper proposed a heuristic solution procedure. Our paper shows that better results can be obtained by a simple method and corrects some erroneous results presented in the previous paper.

A novel heuristic algorithm for capacitated vehicle routing problem
The vehicle routing problem with the capacity constraints was considered in this paper. It is quite difficult to achieve an optimal solution with traditional optimization methods by reason of the high computational complexity for large-scale problems. Consequently, new heuristic or metaheuristic approaches have been developed to solve this problem. In this paper, we constructed a new heuristic ...

A mathematical model and heuristic method for solving multi-depot and multi-product vehicle routing problem with heterogeneous vehicle have been proposed in this paper. Customers can order several products and depots must deliver customer's orders before due date with different vehicle. Hence mathematical model of multi-depot vehicle routing problem has been developed to represent these condi...

periodic vehicle routing problem focuses on establishing a plan of visits to clients over a given time horizon so as to satisfy some service level while optimizing the routes used in each time period. This paper presents a new effective heuristic algorithm based on data mining tools for periodic vehicle routing problem (PVRP). The related results of proposed algorithm are compared with the resu...
متن کاملA Two-Phase Hybrid Heuristic Method for a Multi-Depot Inventory-Routing Problem
In this study, a two phase hybrid heuristic approach was proposed to solve the multi-depot multi-vehicle inventory routing problem (MDMVIRP). Inventory routing problem (IRP) is one of the major issues in the supply chain networks that arise in the context of vendor managed systems (VMI) The MDMVIRP combines inventory management and routing decision. We are given on input a fleet of homogeneous ...
