Prize-Collecting Vehicle Routing (PCVRP)

Principles learned

  • Add multiple list decision variables

  • Add a disjoint constraint

  • Use a lambda expression to compute a sum with a variable number of terms

  • Define a sequence of expressions

  • Access a multi-dimensional array with an “at” operator

  • Add multiple objectives

Problem

../_images/pccvrp.svg

In the prize-collecting vehicle routing problem (PCVRP), a fleet of vehicles with uniform capacity can deliver customers with known demand and prize for a single commodity. The vehicles start and end their routes at a common depot. Each customer might be served by at most one vehicle. The objectives are to minimize the fleet size, maximize the total prize and assign a sequence of customers to each truck of the fleet minimizing the total distance traveled such that a predefined amount of demands are satisfied and the total demand served by each truck does not exceed its capacity.

Data

The instances provided come from the Long et al. Set A instances. They added a prize and a minimum quantity of demands to satisfy to the Augerat et al. Set A instances.

The format of the data files is as follows:

  • The first line: the number of vehicles, vehicle capacity, the predetermined amount needed to be satisfied

  • The second line (depot): node ID, abscissa value, ordinate value

  • The third line to the last line (customers): node ID, abscissa value, ordinate value, demand, prize

Program

This Hexaly model defines a route for each truck k as a list variable (customersSequences[k]). It corresponds to the sequence of customers visited. To ensure that all customers must be served, all the list variables are constrained to form a partition, thanks to the “disjoint” operator.

The number of trucks used for the fleet is defined by the number of trucks that serve at least one customer (if their list variable has at least one element). The definition of these expressions is really straightforward thanks to the count and the comparison operators.

The quantity delivered on each visit is the demand on the node of this visit. This expression is just defined with an at operator to access the array demands. The total quantity delivered by each truck is computed with a function to apply the sum operator over all customers visited by a truck. Note that the number of terms in this sum varies automatically with the size of the list. This quantity is constrained to be lower than the truck capacity. The sum over each truck of this quantity is the total quantity and must be “greater or equal than” the predetermined amount of demands to satisfy.

The prize earned on each visit is the prize on the node of this visit. We also use a function to sum prizes along each route. The total prize is the sum of the prizes of each route.

For each truck, the distance traveled from the visit n-1 to the visit n is accessed with an at operator to the multi-dimensional array distanceMatrix, with the first index. Here again we use a function to sum distances along each route.

The three objectives are defined in lexicographical order: we first minimize the number of trucks used, maximize the total prize and then we minimize the total distance traveled by all the trucks.

If you are interested in the more classical variant CVRP (without prize), you can now study our CVRP model.
