A Heuristic for Vehicle Routeing and Depot Staffing
本文提出了一种解决特定仓库人员配置和路线规划问题的启发式方法,该问题涉及沿途银行存钱,传统方法不适用,并讨论了方案的优点和陷阱。
This paper discusses the approach taken in solving a specific depot staffing and routeing problem. The problem differs from the normal routeing exercise in that the route passes through a number of outlets where monetary collections are made. Owing to the ever increasing risks of carrying money there is a requirement for the money to be deposited at banks along the route. Consequently, the more traditional routeing and scheduling methodologies and software are not easily applied to the problem. This paper details the approach used and highlights some of the good points and the pitfalls in the proposed solution.
