Discrete Optimization Model and Algorithm for Driver Planning in Periodic Driver Routing Problem by Lin Huang, Wenya Lv, Qian Sun, Chengle Ma

“…To tackle this problem, we first propose a mixed-integer linear programming model, which can be solved by an off-the-shelf mixed-integer linear programming solver, and use the local branching based method to solve larger instances of the problem. Numerical experiments are conducted to validate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed model and solution method, as well as the effect of small workload differential among drivers on the total workload.…”
