We propose an algorithmic framework that successfully addresses three vehicle routing
problems: the multidepot VRP, the periodic VRP, and the multidepot periodic VRP with …

In this paper, we show how to extend solution methods for vehicle-routing problems with
intermediate stops (using the example of an Adaptive Variable Neighborhood Search …

The Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) was introduced 50 years ago by Dantzig and Ramser
