Title: Vehicle Routing in the Real World: A Case Study
Abstract:
This presentation is on a school bus routing system implemented to solve a real-life multi‑depot, multi-destination, mix-fleet vehicle routing problem for a school district. The school district consisted of 1200 pickup points, 2000 students and 60 school buses. The precise distances between the pickup points were obtained using digitized road maps. The solutions obtained by the implemented system are compared with the routes used by the school district.
