Abstract:The purpose of this paper is to determine the location of facilities and routes of vehicles, in which the facilities and routes are available within probability interval (0, 1). Hence, this study is coherent the stochastic aspects of the location problem and the vehicle routing problem (VRP). The location problem is solved by optimization software. Because of the computational complexity of the stochastic vehicle routing problem (SVRP), it is solved by a meta-heuristic algorithm based on simulated annealing (S… Show more
