We consider a generalization of the well-known Traveling Salesman Problem, called the Vehicle Scheduling Problem (VSP), in which each city is associated ...

This chapter surveys approximation algorithms for scheduling a set of vehicles that process jobs located at graph vertices. We are given a simple connected.

Jan 25, 2020 · We are given a path over a graph for each vehicle. Our goal is to minimize the number of tardy vehicles (or any other objective function) ...

The vehicle scheduling problem (VSP, for short) consists of a set of n jobs (such as items to be picked up or facilities to be inspected) which are located at ...

If we are not able to empty Q2, we solve a Minimum Fleet Size problem with the trips in Q2 and assign greedly the resulting vehicle duties to the free depots.

We first establish a dynamic programming algorithm for solving VSP on a general graph, and show that VSP can be solved in O(nb) time when G is a tree with b ...

Approximation algorithms for single vehicle scheduling problems with release and service times on a tree or cycle · Mathematics, Computer Science. Theoretical ...

Oct 22, 2024 · This paper discusses the modeling approaches for different kinds of vehicle scheduling problems and gives an up-to-date and comprehensive overview

The vehicle routing problem (VRP) and the job shop scheduling problem (JSP) are two common combinatorial problems that have natural graphical represen- tations.

The vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW) is a very important problem in the transportation industry since it occurs frequently in everyday ...
