A hybrid tabu search algorithm, which generates initial solution by genetic algorithm, is proposed here to solve the vehicle routing problems with time windows (VRPTW). Experimental result shows that this algorithm is better than the other known algorithms.
This paper describes a new design of Tabu search (ts) algorithm for solving the vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW). Since VRPTW is a well known NP-hard problem, heuristic algorithms such as Tabu search are always used to get a good approach. The former published designs of TS usually focus on the neighbor structure, the relaxation to the objective function or the multi-period algorithms...
