Abstract: Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is a key element of many distribution systems which involve routing and selecting of vehicles through a set of nodes. Wireless modes of communication have received attention to such an extent that some of the cities in the world cannot operate without digital control systems. Notably, developments have been implemented beyond operations such as WLAN and mobile phones, witnessing the arrival of time windows in cities such as London and Stockholm. The paper investigates a variant of VRP which incorporates time windows, fleet and driver scheduling, pick-up and delivery in the planning horizon.
Keywords: Developing Optimization Routing Problem Model Control Systems.
Scope of the Article: Cross Layer Design and Optimization
