“…GPS can be used with mobile phone technology to provide real time information on the location of vehicles (Derekenaris et al 2001). In the decade since the paper by Psaraftis, the growth of mobile technologies and the wide use of GPS has greatly facilitated the dynamic rerouting of vehicles (Giaglis et al 2004;Zeimpekis et al 2005).…”

The field of vehicle routing has seen the development of a variety of mathematical techniques. While the practical application of these techniques has depended on the use of spatial information such as road networks, these techniques have developed independently of other users of spatial information. This paper argues that traditional routing techniques have neglected the importance of path constraints and that GIS approaches allow the modelling of an extended range of routing problems. The well-known taxonomy of routing problems by Bodin and Golden is extended to reflect the additional possibilities introduced by the use of GIS techniques. The paper concludes by suggesting that the synthesis of vehicle routing and GIS techniques in a spatial decision support system can greatly enhance the modelling of these problems.

“…There have also been many achievements in research on the disturbance management of logistics distribution. Zeimpekis et al [ 15 ] classified the disturbance problem in logistics distribution and set up a mathematical model with the objectives of minimizing the delay cost and serving the largest number of customers. A disturbance recovery model of logistics distribution was established by Potvin et al [ 16 ] to solve the problems of new customer demand and travel time disturbance, and they introduced an insertion algorithm for this model.…”

Public health emergencies, such as casualties and epidemic spread caused by natural disasters, have become important factors that seriously affect social development. Special medical supplies, such as blood and vaccines, are important public health medical resources, and the cold-chain distribution of medical supplies is in a highly unstable environment after a natural disaster that is easily affected by disturbance events. This paper innovatively studies the distribution optimization of medical supplies after natural disasters from the perspective of disturbance management. A disturbance management model for medical supplies distribution is established from two dimensions: time and cost. In addition, a hybrid genetic algorithm is introduced to solve the model. Disturbance recovery schemes with different weight coefficients are obtained through the actual numerical experiments, and experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed model and algorithm. Finally, we discuss the formulation of weight coefficients in the case of emergency distribution and general distribution, which provide a reference for emergency decisions in disturbance events.

“…Another key issue related to our research is the disruption recovery problem (DRP), which is involved in multiple research areas, such as the passenger transport disruption recovery problem [14][15][16], vessel schedule recovery problem [17,18], and logistics distribution recovery problem. In logistics, Zeimpekis et al [19] introduced a management system framework for dealing with disruption accidents in urban logistics distribution. Protvin et al [20] studied the disruption accidents of new customers and uncertain travel time that were frequently encountered during the collection of tasks.…”

Frequent time window changing disruptions result in high secondary delivery rates in the last mile delivery. With the rapid growth of parcel volumes in online shopping, the time window changing disruptions could translate to substantial delivery cost-wastes. In recent years, customer pickup (CP), a new delivery mode that allows customers to pick up their parcels from shared delivery facilities, has provided a new way to deal with such disruptions. This study proposed a disruption recovery problem with time windows change in the last mile delivery in which customers can be served through home delivery (HD) or CP. A variant variable neighborhood descent (VVND) algorithm was presented to solve the problem. Computational experiments based on a set of instances were tested, and results were compared with other heuristics in the literature, which have affirmed the competitiveness of the model and algorithm.
