Abstract

Solid waste collection in urban areas is a central topic for local environmental agencies. The operational problem, the definition of collection routes given the vehicle fleet, can greatly benefit of computerized support already for medium sized town. While the operational constraints can vary, the core problem can be identified as a capacitated arc routing problem on large directed graphs (DCARP). This paper reports about the effectiveness of different metaheuristics on large DCARP instances derived from real-world applications.
