dc.description.abstract |
A crucial practical issue encountered in logistics management is the circulation of final products from depots to
end-user customers. When routing and scheduling systems are improved, they will not only improve customer
satisfaction but also increase the capacity to serve a large number of customers minimizing time. On the
assumption that there is only one depot, the key issue of distribution is generally identified and formulated as VRP
standing for Vehicle Routing Problem. In case, a company having more than one depot, the suggested VRP is most
unlikely to work out. In view of resolving this limitation and proposing alternatives, VRP with multiple depots
and multi-depot MDVRP have been a focus of this paper. Carrying out a comprehensive analytical literature survey
of past ten years on cost-effective Multi-Depot Vehicle Routing is the main aim of this research. Therefore, the
current status of the MDVRP along with its future developments is reviewed at length in the paper. |
