Combinatorial optimization problems arise commonly in logistics applications. The most successful approaches to date for solving such problems involve modeling them as integer programs and then applying some variant of the branch and bound algorithm. Although branch and bound is conceptually easy to
The aim of this article is to develop an exact algorithm for the asymmetrical capacitated vehicle routing problem, i.e., the multiple traveling salesman problem subject to capacity restrictions. The problem is solved by means of a branch and bound tree in which subproblems are modified assignment pr
