The vehicle routing problem

TL;DR: This classification is the first to categorize the articles of the VRP literature to this level of detail and is based on an adapted version of an existing comprehensive taxonomy.

An Extension of the Lin-Kernighan-Helsgaun TSP Solver for Constrained Traveling Salesman and Vehicle Routing Problems: Technical report

TL;DR: The implementation of an extension of the Lin-Kernighan-Helsgaun TSP solver, which is able to solve a variety of well-known problems, including the sequential ordering problem, the traveling repairman problem, variants of the multiple travel-ing salesman problem, as well as vehicle routing problems with capacity, time windows, pickup-and-delivery and distance constraints.

Operations Research Letters

TL;DR: Operations Research Letters is a publication for literature on all aspects of operations research and the management and decision sciences that focuses on new models, theorems, algorithms, and experimental work that the author wants to disseminate rapidly.

Novel Ant Colony Optimization Methods for Simplifying Solution Construction in Vehicle Routing Problems

TL;DR: A novel ACO algorithm (called AMR) to solve the vehicle routing problem (VRP) that allows ants to go in and out the depots more than once until they have visited all customers, which simplifies the procedure of constructing feasible solutions.

Electric vehicle-routing problem with charging demands and energy consumption

TL;DR: An electric vehicle-routing problem (EVRP) is developed to settle some operation distribution troubles such as battery energy limitations and difficulties in finding charging stations for electric vehicles (EVs), and the model is solved based on the hybrid genetic algorithm to get the routes and charging plan.

The Hungarian method for the assignment problem

TL;DR: This paper has always been one of my favorite children, combining as it does elements of the duality of linear programming and combinatorial tools from graph theory, and it may be of some interest to tell the story of its origin this article.
