We propose a tabu search heuristic capable of solving three well-known routing problems: the periodic vehicle routing problem, the periodic traveling salesman problem, and the multi-depot vehicle routing problem. Computational experiments carried out on instances taken from the literature indicate t

The vehicle routing problem with back-hauls involves the design of a set of minimum cost routes, originating and terminating at a central depot, for a set of vehicles to service a set of customers with known quantities to be either delivered or collected. This paper describes two route-construction
## Abstract This article addresses the wellβknown Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP), in the special case where the demand of a customer consists of a certain number of twoβdimensional weighted items. The problem calls for the minimization of the cost of transportation needed for the delive
In the article, "A Tabu Search Heuristic for the Vehicle Routing Problem with Two-Dimensional Loading Constraints" by M.

The Steiner Tree Problem (STP) in graphs is a well-known NP-hard problem. It has regained attention due to the introduction of new telecommunication technologies, such as ATM, since it appears as the inherent mathematical structure behind multicast communications. In this paper, we present a tabu se
