Abstract :
This paper applies Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (PSO) in a Multi-objective Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Window (MVRPTW). Firstly, through the problem analysis, establish a versatile mathematical model. Secondly, introduce an effective particle code to successfully implement the algorithm. Finally, examples prove that PSO can be obtained the optimal solution quickly and efficiently of MVPRTW.
