We apply a Reactive Tabu Search (RTS) heuristic within a discrete-event simulation to solve routing problems for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Our formulation represents this p...

— We describe a solution procedure for a special case of the periodic vehicle routing problem (PVRP). Operation managers at an auto parts in the north of Spain described the opti...
The Manpower Allocation Problem with Time Windows, Job-Teaming Constraints and a limited number of teams (mMAPTWTC) is a crew scheduling problem faced in several different context...
In this paper, we develop and discuss several distance measures for permutation type representations of solutions of combinatorial optimisation problems. The problems discussed in...
The collection of waste is a highly visible and important municipal service that involves large expenditures. Waste collection problems are, however, one of the most difficult ope...
