Track: Industrial Management
Abstract
Nowadays, one of the objectives of fleet management is to reduce fleet size and costs and to improve efficiency at the level of assignment, scheduling, and routing. In this paper, we present a literature review focusing on solution methods by analyzing 245 journal papers dealing with exact methods as well as heuristics and metaheuristics to solve large instances of two main problems in this area, namely the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) and the Multi Depot Vehicle Scheduling Problem (MDVSP).
