Logistics has gained great attentions with the prosperous development of commerce, which is often seen as the classic optimal vehicle routing problem. Meanwhile, electric vehicle (EV) has been widely used in logistic fleet to curb the…
We investigate a structural decomposition for the capacitated vehicle routing problem (CVRP) based on vehicle-to-customer "assignment" and visits "sequencing" decision variables. We show that an heuristic search focused on assignment…
Vehicle routing problem (VRP) is an NP-hard optimization problem that has been an interest of research for decades in science and industry. The objective is to plan routes of vehicles to deliver a fixed number of customers with optimal…
The energy transition in transportation benefits from demand-based models to determine the optimal placement of refueling stations for alternative fuel vehicles such as battery electric trucks. A formulation known as the refueling station…
Combinatorial optimization (CO) problems are traditionally addressed using Operations Research (OR) methods, including metaheuristics. In this study, we introduce a demand selection problem for the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) with an…
This paper deals with the Pollution-Routing Problem (PRP), a Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) with environmental considerations, recently introduced in the literature by [Bektas and Laporte (2011), Transport. Res. B-Meth. 45 (8), 1232-1250].…
The Cable Routing Optimization Problem (CROP) is a Multi-Commodity Flow Problem (MCFP) central to industrial layouts and smart manufacturing. Historically, quantum optimization has modeled MCFPs as Quadratic Unconstrained Binary…
Modular vehicles (MV) possess the ability to physically connect/disconnect with each other and travel in platoon with less energy consumption. A fleet of demand-responsive transit vehicles with such technology can serve passengers door to…
In this paper, we develop a profit-sharing-based optimal routing mechanism to incentivize horizontal collaboration among urban goods distributors. This paper investigates a collaborative routing problem for urban logistics, in which the…
One of the most studied extensions of the famous Traveling Salesperson Problem (TSP) is the {\sc Multiple TSP}: a set of $m\geq 1$ salespersons collectively traverses a set of $n$ cities by $m$ non-trivial tours, to minimize the total…
We study the extended version of the non-uniform, capacitated facility location problem with multiple fulfilment channels between the facilities and clients, each with their own channel capacities and service cost. Though the problem has…
The Capacitated Vehicle Routing problem is to find a minimum-cost set of tours that collectively cover clients in a graph, such that each tour starts and ends at a specified depot and is subject to a capacity bound on the number of clients…
Recently, machine learning of the branch and bound algorithm has shown promise in approximating competent solutions to NP-hard problems. In this paper, we utilize and comprehensively compare the outcomes of three neural networks--graph…
We study the {\em $k$-route} generalizations of various cut problems, the most general of which is \emph{$k$-route multicut} ($k$-MC) problem, wherein we have $r$ source-sink pairs and the goal is to delete a minimum-cost set of edges to…
This paper introduces a novel compact mixed integer linear programming (MILP) formulation and a discretization discovery-based solution approach for the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (VRPTW). We aim to solve the optimization…
Emerging reconfigurable optical communication technologies allow to enhance datacenter topologies with demand-aware links optimized towards traffic patterns. This paper studies the algorithmic problem of jointly optimizing topology and…
Over the past thirty years, the vehicle routing problem with stochastic demands (VRPSD) has emerged as a canonical application of the integer L-shaped method. Recently, the disaggregated integer L-shaped (DL-shaped) method, which decomposes…
The Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) underpins modern last-mile logistics. Current Neural Combinatorial Optimization (NCO) methods construct CVRP solutions autoregressively, inheriting sequential decoding bottlenecks, sensitivity…
Dynamic vehicle routing problems (DVRPs) arise in several applications such as technician routing, meal delivery, and parcel shipping. We consider the DVRP with stochastic customer requests (DVRPSR), in which vehicles must be routed…
The cost due to delay in services may be intrinsically different for various applications of vehicle routing such as medical emergencies, logistical operations, and ride-sharing. We study a fundamental generalization of the Traveling…
