A Survey on Multi-criteria Analysis in Logistics: Focus on Vehicle Routing Problems

Abstract : Vehicle routing problems play a central role in logistics. These combinatorial optimization problems have attracted more and more attention these last five decades both in theory and in practice. However, main contributions are dedicated to the single criterion optimization problems. The goal of this chapter is to provide the recent key references dedicated to multi-criteria studies in transportation logistics and especially on vehicle routing problems and to present some interesting research directions.
