A heuristic approach to long-haul freight transportation with multiple objective functions
چکیده انگلیسی

This paper studies a long-haul freight transportation problem stimulated by a real-life application, whose underlying vehicle routing problem is a multi-objective one, where travel time and route cost are to be minimized together with the maximization of a transportation mean sharing index, related to the capability of the transportation system of generating economy scale solutions. In terms of constraints, besides vehicle capacity and time windows, transportation jobs have to obey additional constraints related to mandatory nodes (e.g., logistic platform nearest to the origin or the destination) and forbidden nodes (e.g., logistic platforms not compatible with the operations required). Based on the network definition, routes can be multimodal. To solve this problem, we propose a heuristic algorithm that can be applied in the tactical and the operational planning phase, and present the results of an extensive experimentation.
