چکیده
This paper presents two GRASP metaheuristic algorithms for the vehicle routing problem, considering the capacity and shared demand of the customers. In this paper the solution obtained is compared with a greedy solution and two hybrid solutions (greedy and random). The results obtained show that the GRASP algorithm obtains a better quality solution for this kind of problem.

متن کاملSolving 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...
متن کاملModelling and Solving the Capacitated Location-Routing Problem with Simultaneous Pickup and Delivery Demands
In this work, the capacitated location-routing problem with simultaneous pickup and delivery (CLRP-SPD) is considered. This problem is a more realistic case of the capacitated location-routing problem (CLRP) and belongs to the reverse logistics of the supply chain. The problem has many real-life applications of which some have been addressed in the literature such as management of liquid petrol...
متن کاملA 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 ...
متن کاملA Combined Metaheuristic Algorithm for the Vehicle Routing Problem and its Open Version
Abstract: The Open Vehicle Routing Problem (OVRP) is one of the most important extensions of the vehicle routing problem (VRP) that has many applications in industrial and service. In the VRP, a set of customers with a specified demand of goods are given and a depot where a fleet of identical capacitated vehicles is located. We are also given the ‘‘traveling costs’’ between the depot and all th...
