Descrizione del libro

The first part of this book covers basic VRP, known more commonly as capacitated VRP. Part two covers three main variants of VRP: with time windows, backhauls, and pickup and delivery. The last part covers issues arising in real-world VRP applications and includes case studies and references to software packages.
