Hyper-heuristics comprise a set of approaches that are motivated (at least in part) by the goal
of automating the design of heuristic methods to solve hard computational search problems…

… The interested reader is also referred to the work by Gendreau and Potvin [55] and Ichoua et
al… Further results motivated by a similar application can be found in Gendreau et al. [51] and …

Time-dependent routing amounts to design “best” routes in a graph in which arc traversal
times may vary over the planning horizon. In the last decade, a number of technological …

The first edition of the Handbook of Metaheuristics was published in 2003 under the editorship
of Fred Glover and Gary A. Kochenberger. Given the numerous developments observed …

then reoptimized locally using the reverse of GENI (see Gendreau et al. 1992), and vi is then …

… The approximate algorithm we propose for the CTP combines the GENIUS heuristic for the
TSP (Gendreau et al. 1992) with the PRIMAL1 Set Covering heuristic due to Balas and Ho (…

The purpose of this paper is to describe TABUROUTE, a new tabu search heuristic for the
vehicle routing problem with capacity and route length restrictions. The algorithm considers a …

This paper presents a survey of the research on the vehicle routing problem with time windows
(VRPTW). The VRPTW can be described as the problem of designing least cost routes …
