Abstract

This paper is aimed to solve this kind of problem and cope with the actual requirements containing time window and dynamic demands. Therefore the smooth and continuous time dependent function is introduced and the two-stage model including the “initial optimization stage” and “real-time optimization stage” is established. At the same time, a hybrid algorithm based on genetic-tabu algorithm and simulated annealing algorithm is designed to solve the model. In the end the effectiveness of the hybrid algorithm and the model is verified by comparing the results of simulation and other algorithms.
