The real-time decision problems play a more and more important role in many areas such as the logistic distribution. This paper is focused on the Dynamic Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (DVRPTW) in the context of realtime traffic information. …
This paper raises a novel two-phase heuristic method to solve vehicle routing problems with backhauls. Differing from other vehicle routing problems, we consider the travel speed of vehicle to be time dependent, which will be used for the model of …
The Multi-Depot Vehicle Routing Problem with time-dependent and fuzzy travel time is very difficult to solve to optimality even for relatively small size instances. So few or no literatures have focused on the problem so far. But it is very …
The itinerary planning problem in an urban public transport system constitutes a common routing and scheduling decision faced by travelers. The objective of this paper is to present a new formulation and an algorithm for solving the itinerary planning problem, …
In this paper, a dynamic road network problem is described where dynamic travel times are considered. We present a method of getting the road time function based on analyzing strategy for solving time dependent vehicle routing problem (TDVRP). Obtain the …
© 2006 by World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.Time dependent vehicle routing problem is a vehicle routing problem in which travel costs along the network are dependent upon the time of day during which travel is to be carried out. …
This article considers the application of an on-line vehicle scheduling system to road networks where travel speeds vary over time. In such conditions, the volume of path calculations needed to maintain a consistent view of vehicle deployments may be much …
