Solving a Vehicle Routing Problem under Uncertainty by a Differential Evolution Algorithm by Alireza Salamatbakhsh, Reza Tavakkoli-Moghaddam, Ali Pahlevani

“…This paper investigates the problem of increasing service time by using the stochastic time for each tour such that the total travelling time of the vehicles is limited to a specific limit based on a defined probability. Methodology: It is proven that classic models in vehicle routing problems (VRPs) belong to the class of NP-hard ones; thus, due to its complexity using exact methods in large-scale problems, a meta-heuristic-based differential evolution (DE) algorithm is proposed. …”
