Scheduling issues in vehicle routing

Abstract

Scheduling often plays an important role in vehicle routing. This paper describes several applications in which the author has been involved in recent years. These arise in the dial-a-ride problem, speed optimization in routing problems, the pollution-routing problem, long-haul vehicle routing and scheduling with working hour rules, and synchronization in arc routing.
