Abstract
A vehicle routing problem with simultaneous pickup-delivery and time windows is considered.A parallel simulated annealing algorithm with local search techniques is proposed.The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by test and comparison. This paper addresses a variant of the vehicle routing problem in which customers require simultaneous pickup and delivery of goods during specific individual time windows (VRPSPDTW). A general...
