Abstract :
The real time dynamic vehicle routing problem (RT-DVRP) is an extension of VRPTW, in which the problem parameters change in real time. We present a solution to RTDVRP: a concurrent, agent-based reactive vehicle routing system (RVRS) and the implementation of the RVRS, which combines a generic, concurrent infrastructure and a powerful incremental local optimization heuristic
