Recently, a taxonomic review of the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) literature published
between 2009 and June 2015 stated that most of the surveyed articles use metaheuristics …

Over the past decades, the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) and its variants have grown ever
more popular in the academic literature. Yet, the problem characteristics and assumptions …

Vehicle routing problem with drones (VRPD) has recently gained much traction among the
research community due to its potential to improve efficiency and reduce costs for delivery …

The key idea underlying iterated local search is to focus the search not on the full space of
all candidate solutions but on the solutions that are returned by some underlying algorithm …

The efficiency and dynamism of unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones, have presented
substantial application opportunities in several industries in the last years. Notably, logistic …

It has been around 30 years since the heterogeneous vehicle routing problem was
introduced, and significant progress has since been made on this problem and its variants …

The attributes of vehicle routing problems are additional characteristics or constraints that
aim to better take into account the specificities of real applications. The variants thus formed …

In this paper, we analyze how drones can be combined with regular delivery vehicles to
improve same‐day delivery performance. To this end, we present a dynamic vehicle routing …

In this work we propose a hybrid algorithm for a class of Vehicle Routing Problems with
homogeneous fleet. A sequence of Set Partitioning (SP) models, with columns …

In this paper, we introduce the multiple Traveling Salesman Problem with Drone Stations
(mTSP-DS), which is an extension to the classical multiple Traveling Salesman Problem …
