Fleet-sizing for multi-depot and periodic vehicle routing problems using a modular heuristic algorithm

In this paper, we address the problem of determining the optimal fleet size for three vehicle routing problems, i.e., multi-depot VRP, periodic VRP and multi-depot periodic VRP. In each of these problems, we consider three kinds of constraints that are often found in reality, i.e., vehicle capacity,...
