Description

This collection of original research papers is dedicated to the analysis and solution of vehicle routing problems. Vehicle routing is a branch of operations research that has attracted a great deal of research attention over the years. The accumulated body of knowledge has resulted in algorithms and insights that have enabled companies and organizations in both the public and private sectors to save from 5% to 10% on distribution related costs. The volume brings together, in a comprehensive way, the theory and practice of vehicle routing in book form for the first time.
