Abstract
The Green Vehicle Routing and Scheduling Problem (GVRSP) aims to minimize carbon Dioxide Emissions (CO2) in logistics systems through better planning of deliveries made by a fleet of vehicles. In this paper, the GVRSP considers heterogeneous vehicles, time-varying traffic congestion, capacity constraints and the delivery can be fractionated. The GVRSP also allows vehicles to stop on arcs, so vehicle is allowed to travel an arc in multiple time periods. We present a mathematical formulation to describe the problem and a hybrid algorithm that combines the metaheuristic Iterated Local Search (ILS), the Random Variable Neighborhood Descent (RVND) procedure and an exact Set Covering model. The results obtained are compared with the state of the art and we show that the proposed approach has a strong performance.
期刊介绍:
Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics is a venue for the rapid electronic publication of the proceedings of conferences, of lecture notes, monographs and other similar material for which quick publication is appropriate. Organizers of conferences whose proceedings appear in Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics, and authors of other material appearing as a volume in the series are allowed to make hard copies of the relevant volume for limited distribution. For example, conference proceedings may be distributed to participants at the meeting, and lecture notes can be distributed to those taking a course based on the material in the volume.
