In this section we describe a VRP in which each vehicle picks up items at various locations and drops them off at others. The problem is to assign routes for the vehicles to pick up and deliver all the items, while minimizing the length of the longest route.
VRP example with pickups and deliveries
The diagram below shows the pickup and delivery locations on a grid similar to the one in the previous VRP example. For each item, there is a directed edge from the pickup location to the delivery location.
Solving the example with OR-Tools
The following sections describe how to solve the VRP with pickups and deliveries . Much of the code is borrowed from the previous VRP example, so we'll focus on the parts that are new.
Create the data
The data for the problem includes the distance matrix from the previous VRP
example, along with a list of pairs of pickup and delivery locations,
data['pickups_deliveries'], corresponding to the directed edges in the diagram
above. The code below defines the pickup and delivery locations.
Python
data["pickups_deliveries"] = [
[1, 6],
[2, 10],
[4, 3],
[5, 9],
[7, 8],
[15, 11],
[13, 12],
[16, 14],
]
C++
const std::vector<std::vector<RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex>>
pickups_deliveries{
{RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{1},
RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{6}},
{RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{2},
RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{10}},
{RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{4},
RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{3}},
{RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{5},
RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{9}},
{RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{7},
RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{8}},
{RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{15},
RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{11}},
{RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{13},
RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{12}},
{RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{16},
RoutingIndexManager::NodeIndex{14}},
};
Java
public final int[][] pickupsDeliveries = {
{1, 6},
{2, 10},
{4, 3},
{5, 9},
{7, 8},
{15, 11},
{13, 12},
{16, 14},
};
C#
public int[][] PickupsDeliveries = {
new int[] { 1, 6 }, new int[] { 2, 10 }, new int[] { 4, 3 }, new int[] { 5, 9 },
new int[] { 7, 8 }, new int[] { 15, 11 }, new int[] { 13, 12 }, new int[] { 16, 14 },
};
For each pair, the first entry is index of the pickup location, and the second is the index of the delivery location.
Define pickup and delivery requests
The following code defines pickup and delivery requests, using pickup and
delivery locations in data['pickups_deliveries'].
Python
for request in data["pickups_deliveries"]:
pickup_index = manager.NodeToIndex(request[0])
delivery_index = manager.NodeToIndex(request[1])
routing.AddPickupAndDelivery(pickup_index, delivery_index)
routing.solver().Add(
routing.VehicleVar(pickup_index) == routing.VehicleVar(delivery_index)
)
routing.solver().Add(
distance_dimension.CumulVar(pickup_index)
<= distance_dimension.CumulVar(delivery_index)
)
C++
Solver* const solver = routing.solver();
for (const auto& request : data.pickups_deliveries) {
const int64_t pickup_index = manager.NodeToIndex(request[0]);
const int64_t delivery_index = manager.NodeToIndex(request[1]);
routing.AddPickupAndDelivery(pickup_index, delivery_index);
solver->AddConstraint(solver->MakeEquality(
routing.VehicleVar(pickup_index), routing.VehicleVar(delivery_index)));
solver->AddConstraint(
solver->MakeLessOrEqual(distance_dimension->CumulVar(pickup_index),
distance_dimension->CumulVar(delivery_index)));
}
Java
Solver solver = routing.solver();
for (int[] request : data.pickupsDeliveries) {
long pickupIndex = manager.nodeToIndex(request[0]);
long deliveryIndex = manager.nodeToIndex(request[1]);
routing.addPickupAndDelivery(pickupIndex, deliveryIndex);
solver.addConstraint(
solver.makeEquality(routing.vehicleVar(pickupIndex), routing.vehicleVar(deliveryIndex)));
solver.addConstraint(solver.makeLessOrEqual(
distanceDimension.cumulVar(pickupIndex), distanceDimension.cumulVar(deliveryIndex)));
}
C#
Solver solver = routing.solver();
for (int i = 0; i < data.PickupsDeliveries.GetLength(0); i++)
{
long pickupIndex = manager.NodeToIndex(data.PickupsDeliveries[i][0]);
long deliveryIndex = manager.NodeToIndex(data.PickupsDeliveries[i][1]);
routing.AddPickupAndDelivery(pickupIndex, deliveryIndex);
solver.Add(solver.MakeEquality(routing.VehicleVar(pickupIndex), routing.VehicleVar(deliveryIndex)));
solver.Add(solver.MakeLessOrEqual(distanceDimension.CumulVar(pickupIndex),
distanceDimension.CumulVar(deliveryIndex)));
}
For each pair, the command
routing.AddPickupAndDelivery(pickup_index, delivery_index) creates a pickup
and delivery request for an item.
The following line adds the requirement that each item must be picked up and delivered by the same vehicle.
routing.solver().Add(
routing.VehicleVar(pickup_index) ==
routing.VehicleVar(delivery_index))
Finally, we add the obvious requirement that each item must be picked up before it is delivered. To do so, we require that a vehicle's cumulative distance at an item's pickup location is at most its cumulative distance at the delivery location.
routing.solver().Add(
distance_dimension.CumulVar(pickup_index) <=
distance_dimension.CumulVar(delivery_index))
Running the program
The complete programs for the VRP with pickups and deliveries are shown in the next section. When you run the program, it displays the following routes.
Objective: 226116 Route for vehicle 0: 0 -> 13 -> 15 -> 11 -> 12 -> 0 Distance of the route: 1552m Route for vehicle 1: 0 -> 5 -> 2 -> 10 -> 16 -> 14 -> 9 -> 0 Distance of the route: 2192m Route for vehicle 2: 0 -> 4 -> 3 -> 0 Distance of the route: 1392m Route for vehicle 3: 0 -> 7 -> 1 -> 6 -> 8 -> 0 Distance of the route: 1780m Total Distance of all routes: 6916m
The following diagram shows the routes:
