Incorporating emissions models within a multi-objective vehicle routing problem. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Urquhart, N. B., Scott, C., & Hart, E. (2013, July). Incorporating emissions models within a multi-objective vehicle routing problem. Presented at 15th annual conference companion on Genetic and evolutionary computation

The vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW) has previously been investigated as a multi-objective problem. In this paper estimated carbon emissions is added as an objective alongside the number of vehicles required and distance travelled. W...

Using graphical information systems to improve vehicle routing problem instances. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Urquhart, N. B., Scott, C., & Hart, E. (2013, July). Using graphical information systems to improve vehicle routing problem instances. Presented at 15th annual conference companion on Genetic and evolutionary computation

This paper makes the assertion that vehicle routing rearch has produced increasingly more powerful problem solvers, but has not increased the realism or compexity of typical problem instances. This paper argues that the time has come of use realistic... Read More about Using graphical information systems to improve vehicle routing problem instances..
