This paper describes a vehicle flow model for a two-echelon location-routing problem involving deliveries from primary to secondary facilities and from secon...

The aim of this paper is to develop an exact algorithm for the asymmetrical distance constrained vehicle routing problem. The problem is solved by means of ...

The single-vehicle dial-a-ride problem with time window constraints for both pick-up and delivery locations, and precedence and capacity constraints, is solv...

This paper describes an exact algorithm for a general class of asymmetrical vehicle routing problems. Vehicle routes start and end at a central depot. Visi...

Let n facilities be located on a bounded linear market and assume that demand for a homogenous commodity is uniformly distributed along that market. Initial...

This paper presents an exact algorithm for a generalized version of the Travelling Salesman Problem which consists of finding the shortest Hamiltonian cirnui...

This paper describes an exact algorithm for the asymmetrical multiple travelling salesman problem. The problem is solved by branch and bound and a flow circ...
