VRP swMATH ID: 5207 Software Authors: NEO: Networking and Emerging Optimization Description: The Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is one of the most challenging combinatorial optimization task. Defined more than 40 years ago, this problem consists in designing the optimal set of routes for fleet of vehicles in order to serve a given set of customers. The interest in VRP is motivated by its practical relevance as well as by its considerable difficulty. This web is dedicated to the study of VRP; we have compiled here a great deal of information about it for public access: technical reports, many different variants of the problem, alternative algorithms and techniques for solving it, some well-known instances of the problem, the best-so-far solutions for those instances, bibliography, related links… Homepage: http://neo.lcc.uma.es/vrp/ Keywords: Vehicle Routing Problem; VRP; optimization; portal; links Related Software: CVRPSP; Tabu search; CPLEX; TSPLIB; LKH; Concorde; CVRPSEP; MACS-VRPTW; Scatter Search; METSlib; BoneRoute; OR-Library; Gurobi; VRPH; VRPSolver; irace; GAMS; Genocop; GRASP; VRPLIB Cited in: 1,126 Publications Further Publications: http://neo.lcc.uma.es/vrp/bibliography-on-vrp/ all top 5 Cited by 1,971 Authors 40 Laporte, Gilbert 28 Vigo, Daniele 25 Gendreau, Michel 25 Toth, Paolo 21 Hartl, Richard F. 20 Vidal, Thibaut 18 Archetti, Claudia 17 Prins, Christian 16 Feillet, Dominique 14 Crainic, Teodor Gabriel 13 Irnich, Stefan 13 Salazar-González, Juan-José 13 Uchoa, Eduardo 12 Baldacci, Roberto 12 Tarantilis, Christos D. 11 Cordeau, Jean-François 11 Løkketangen, Arne 11 Sörensen, Kenneth 10 Golden, Bruce L. 10 Van Woensel, Tom 9 Coelho, Leandro C. 9 Dörner, Karl F. 9 Juan, Angel A. 9 Renaud, Jacques 9 Salari, Majid 8 Absi, Nabil 8 Bianchessi, Nicola 8 Gouveia, Luis 8 Iori, Manuel 8 Lim, Andrew E.
