Local search with annealing-like restarts to solve the vehicle routing problem with time windows
In this paper, we propose a metaheuristic based on snneedinglikerestarts to diversifyand intensifylocalsearches for solving the vehicle muting problem with time windows (VR_PTW). ...

A Comparison of Traditional and Constraint-based Heuristic Methods on Vehicle Routing Problems with Side Constraints
The vehicle routing problem (VRP) is a variant of the familiar travelling salesperson problem (TSP). In the VRP we are to perform a number of visits, using a number of vehicles of ...

A Parallel Evolutionary Algorithm for the Vehicle Routing Problem with Heterogeneous Fleet
Abstract. Nowadays genetic algorithms stand as a trend to solve NPcomplete and NP-hard problems. In this paper, we present a new hybrid metaheuristic which uses Parallel Genetic Al...
