Knowledge-based optimization algorithm for the inventory routing problem
Soft Computing - A Fusion of Foundations, Methodologies and Applications, 2023 The Inventory Routing Problem (IRP) is a combinatorial optimization problem that combines routing decisions with inventory management. In this paper, an approach to solving the IRP is studied, which aims at using an external knowledge source (a known ...
