摘要
In this note, we discuss routing and location-routing delivery men problems on a path. The objective of the delivery men problem is to find service tours so as to minimize the total waiting time of all customers. We present an O(n2) time algorithm for the location-routing problem with a single server. This algorithm is further used in polynomial time algorithms that are developed for routing and location-routing problems with p servers. Also considered is the sales-delivery men problem for which in addition to the delivery men criterion, also the traveling salesman criterion (which is of primary importance) is used.
