چکیده

This paper presents a review of vehicle routing problem with simultaneous pickup and deliveries (VRPSPD). VRPSPD is a variant of the VRP where both delivery and pickup demands are fulfilled simultaneously. Due to computer accessibility and increased capability in computing, algorithm development has shown major advancements. These were reflected in VRP researches also. The need to improve vehicle routing, in turn, stimulates explosive developments in theory and applications of supply chain management. So without any surprise the VRP literature has grown exponentially. It is even more important to regularly assess and evaluate where the field is heading, and what should be done to improve that field’s course. This indicates the need for some form of taxonomical research. Keywords— Put your keywords here, keywords are separated by

The fuzzy multi-depot vehicle routing problem with simultaneous pickup and delivery: Formulation and a heuristic algorithm

In this paper, the fuzzy multi-depot vehicle routing problem with simultaneous pickup and delivery (FMDVRP-SPD) is investigated. The FMDVRP-SPD is the problem of allocating customers to several depots, so that the optimal set of routes is determined simultaneously to serve the pickup and the delivery demands of each customer within scattered depots. In the problem, both pickup and delivery dema...

Solving the Vehicle Routing Problem with Simultaneous Pickup and Delivery by an Effective Ant Colony Optimization

One of the most important extensions of the capacitated vehicle routing problem (CVRP) is the vehicle routing problem with simultaneous pickup and delivery (VRPSPD) where customers require simultaneous delivery and pick-up service. In this paper, we propose an effective ant colony optimization (EACO) which includes insert, swap and 2-Opt moves for solving VRPSPD that is different with common an...

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...

STOCHASTIC VEHICLE ROUTING PROBLEMS WITH SIMULTANEOUS PICKUP AND DELIVERY SERVICES

The problem of designing a set of routes with minimum cost to serve a collection of customers with a fleet of vehicles is a fundamental challenge when the number of customers to be dropped or picked up is not known during the planning horizon. The purpose of this paper is to develop a vehicle routing Problem (VRP) model that addresses stochastic simultaneous pickup and delivery in the urban pub...
