Vehicle Routing Problem using Swarm Optimization Techniques
Main Article Content
Abstract
Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is a major research domain in optimization research area. In VRP produced goods are supplied to customers on their demand from one or more depot. Goal of VRP is to attain a group of delivery path satisfying several necessities or constraints and give out minimal overall cost. After introducing a basic description in relevance of VRP, how the applications are applied in real-life is represented. Numerous variations of VRP exist there such as: time windows, pickup and delivery, stochastic VRP, periodic deliveries and heterogeneous fleet etc. Review contains the paper published in between 2008 to 2016, which shows how heuristic techniques are used in solving different variants of VRP.
