摘要: The objective of the project is to perform analytical analyses of heuristics for the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) and apply the results in models that integrate vehicle routing with other issues important to the firm. Our major accomplishments are: (1) Determined the exact structure of the asymptotic optimal solution value of the VRP with capacity and time window constraints and used it to develop a new and efficient algorithm. (2) Obtained a characterization of the effectiveness of set partitioning formulations for VRPs. (3) Characterized the worst case behavior of the linear programming relaxation of the set partitioning formulation for the bin packing problem. (4) Performed a probabilistic analysis of a multi-echelon distribution system and used the insight obtained to develop an efficient algorithm for it.
