This paper presents hybrid meta-heuristics called Genetic Clustering and Tabu Routing for solving a vehicle routing problem using two phases methodology: first clustering and then routing. The results are compared with those obtained using meta-heuristics and heuristic techniques presented in previous papers. Genetic clustering and Tabu routing average results were 23% and 9.1% better, respectively.
En este artículo se presenta una metaheurística híbrida denominada Genetic Clustering and Tabu Routing, con la cual se soluciona un problema de ruteo de vehículos a través de la metodología de dos fases: clusterizar primero – rutear después. Los resultados son comparados con los obtenidos al aplicar las técnicas metaheurís-tica y heurística, presentadas en la parte 2 de esta serie de artículos, encontrando mejoras promedio del 23% y 9.1% respectivamente.
