A hybrid metaheuristic for solving asymmetric distance-constrained vehicle routing problem
The Asymmetric Distance-Constrained Vehicle Routing Problem (ADVRP) is NP-hard as it is a natural extension of the NP-hard Vehicle Routing Problem. In ADVRP problem, each customer is visited exactly once by a vehicle; every tour starts and ends at a depot; and the traveled distance by each vehicle is not allowed to exceed a predetermined limit. We propose a hybrid metaheuristic algorithm combining the Randomized Variable Neighborhood Search (RVNS) and the Tabu Search (TS) to solve the problem. The combination of multiple neighborhoods and tabu mechanism is used for their capacity to escape local optima while exploring the solution space. Furthermore, the intensification and diversification phases are also included to deliver optimized and diversified solutions. Extensive numerical experiments and comparisons with all the state-of-the-art algorithms show that the proposed method is highly competitive in terms of solution quality and computation time, providing new best solutions for a number of instances.
