Abstract

In this paper we propose an efficient heuristic for the Vehicle Routing Problem on Trees (TVRP). An initial solution is constructed with a greedy algorithm based on the Depth-First Search (DFS) approach. To optimize initial solutions obtained by our DFS heuristic, Ruin-and-Recreate (RR) method is then applied. For diversification purposes a randomization mechanism is added to the construction of initial solutions and DFS+RR algorithm is executed multiple times until the best found solution stops changing. The results of our approach are compared with the solutions obtained by the exact model of Chandran & Raghavan (2008). The computational experiments show that the suggested heuristic is fast and finds solutions which differ from optimal ones less than by 1% in average.
