Fast Tabu Search Algorithm for Solving Multi-Vehicle and Multi-Cargo Loading Problem

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper studies multi-vehicle and multi-cargo loading problem under the limited loading capacity. According to the characteristics of model and problem, fast taboo search algorithm is used to get the optimization solution from the overall situation. Firstly, it applies newly improved insertion method to construct initial solution in order to improve the feasibility of the solution. Secondly, it centers cubage-weight balance to design three operations for fastening the speed of convergence, stock elite to improve the searching efficiency of algorithm. Finally, the good performance of this algorithm can be proved by experiment calculation and concrete examples for solving practical problems.
