Context-Aware Multi-Objective Vehicle Routing

چکیده
A vehicle routing deals with designing optimal delivery routes for a fleet of vehicles serving spatially distributed customers. There is a multitude of variants of this problem varying according to problem characteristics and assumptions. Routing is guided by multiple objectives and affected by different context factors. This paper formulates a vehicle routing optimization model allowing for incorporation of arbitrary selected context factors and objectives represented by KPI. In order to assess relative importance of the objectives and context factors, an adaptive approach is proposed. Experimental studies are conducted to illustrate application of the model and the adaptation method.

In this paper, a new approach to risk minimizing vehicle routing and scheduling problem is presented. Forwarding agents or companies have two main concerns for the collection of high-risk commodities like cash or valuable commodities between the central depot and the customers: one; because of the high value of the commodities transported, the risk of ambush and robbery are very high. Two; the ...
متن کاملA New Competitive Approach on Multi-Objective Periodic Vehicle Routing Problem
This paper presents a novel multi-objective mathematical model of a periodic vehicle routing problem (PVRP) in a competitive situation for obtaining more sales. In such a situation, the reaching time to customers affects the sale amount therefore, distributors intend to service customers earlier than other rivals for obtaining the maximum sale. Moreover, a partial driver’s benefit is related...
متن کاملComparing Two-Echelon and Single-Echelon Multi-Objective Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problems
This paper aims to compare a two-echelon and a single-echelon distribution system. A mathematical model for the Single-Echelon Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (SE-CVRP) is proposed. This SE-CVRP is the counterpart of Two-Echelon Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (2E-CVRP) introduced in the authors’ previous work. The proposed mathematical model is Mixed-Integer Non-Linear Programming (MIN...

This article addresses a general tri-objective two-echelon capacitated vehicle routing problem (2E-CVRP) to minimize the total travel cost, customers waiting times and carbon dioxide emissions simultaneously in distributing perishable products. In distributing perishable products, customers’ satisfaction is very important and is inversely proportional to the customers waiting times. The propose...
