摘要:This paper addresses the real-life waste collection vehicle routing problem by applying Iterated Greedy (IG) and Randomized Iterated Greedy (RIG) in order to improve the processes. This kind of problem becomes more complex in developing countries in several aspects such as costs and fuel. Nowadays, the waste collection is considered as one of the interesting areas. There are three types of waste: commer-cial, residential and roll-on-roll-off. In this paper, we mainly consider the residential waste collection problem. The problem can be summa-rized as follows: a vehicle has to satisfy the demand at each customer location while satisfying the capacity of the vehicle for reducing the total cost. We report a case study that is related to waste collection in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. To solve the case study problem, IG and RIG were employed. Experiments have been done on the case study data and show a better performance when compared IG algo-rithm results with RIG algorithm results.
