Vehicle routing problem with time windows VRPTW

The pickup-and-delivery problem can be modeled as a variation of the vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW) and a single depot. Inputs for the VRPTW include matrices that specify the distance and travel time between every pair of customers (including the depot) service time and time window for each customer maximum (or specified) number of drivers starting time of the workday and maximum on-road time of the workday. The maximum on-road time of the workday can be implemented as a time window on the depot, so that the pickup and delivery problem described above can be considered as a traveling salesman problem with time windows and multiple routes (m-TSPTW). However, the term VRPTW will be used in this section for this uncapadtated pickup-and-delivery problem. [Pg.794]

Vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW). The VRP with Time Windows is the extension of the CVRP in which capacity constraints are imposed and each customer is associated with a time interval [aj, bj, called a time window. The time instant in which the vehicles leave the depot, the travel time for each arc, and an additional service time Si for each customer should also be given. [Pg.90]

Thankfully, industrial engineers and software developers are aware of these real constraints, which are handled by various extensions of the TSP (Ball et rd. 1995 Golden and Assad 1988). For example, route capacities and times are considered by the vehicle routing problem (VRP), while time window constraints are included in the TSP with time windows (TSPTW) and the VRP with time windows (VRPTW). Advances in telecommunications make it now possible to implement models that take into account the dynamic aspects of vehicle routing, while time-dependent vehicle routing problems take into account time-dependent travel times and costs. The stochastic aspects of cost, time, demand... [Pg.2061]
