The periodic Vehicle routing problem: classification and heuristic

M. Mourgaya, F. Vanderbeck (2006)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

The Periodic Vehicle Routing Problem (PVRP) consists in assigning customer visits to vehicle routes in some periods of a time horizon so as to satisfy some service level requirements that can take the form of frequency of visit, constraint on time lag between visits, or pre-defined visit patterns. We present different variants of this problem and propose a classification. Then, we consider a model for tactical planning for which we propose a heuristic: we optimise the planning...

La différentiation automatique et son utilisation en optimisation

Jean-Pierre Dussault (2008)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

In this work, we present an introduction to automatic differentiation, its use in optimization software, and some new potential usages. We focus on the potential of this technique in optimization. We do not dive deeply in the intricacies of automatic differentiation, but put forward its key ideas. We sketch a survey, as of today, of automatic differentiation software, but warn the reader that the situation with respect to software evolves rapidly. In the last part of the paper, we present...
