The current global interest in improving the use of ever-scarcer natural resources calls for
the re-alignment of supply chain operations to include not only economic factors, but …

6.1▪ Introduction Pickup-and-Delivery Problems (PDPs) constitute an important family of
routing problems in which goods or passengers have to be transported from different origins …

Distributors are faced with loading constraints in their route planning, eg, multi-dimensional
packing constraints, unloading sequence constraints, stability constraints and axle weight …

In this paper, we consider that a private company has developed a platform to provide
intercity ride-sharing (IRS) services for riders between two cities. The riders between the two …

As a typical representative of the NP-complete problem, the traveling salesman problem
(TSP) is widely utilized in computer networks, logistics distribution, and other fields. In this …

This paper presents a study on routing problems associated with bridge inspection tasks. In
the evaluated problems, a bridge inspection team must depart from the depot, visit bridges …

This paper first introduces the fundamental principles of immune algorithm (IA), greedy
algorithm (GA) and delete-cross operator (DO). Based on these basic algorithms, a hybrid …

In systems of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), to achieve cooperative
operation and cluster intelligence, information is often disseminated via broadcasting …

In this paper, we introduce, model and solve the pickup and delivery problem with time
windows, multiple stacks, and handling operations (PDPTWMS-H). In the PDPTWMS-H, a …

In this paper, we introduce and study the capacitated vehicle routing problem with sequence-
based pallet loading and axle weight constraints. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first …
