Abstract: In this paper, a new probability tabu search method is proposed to solve the Pickup and Delivery Problem with Time Windows (PDPTW). We first review the basic method of solving VRP and PDP problems, introduce the basic concepts of search method, and then illustrate the heuristic algorithm, which solves PDPTW with probability tabu search technique. Experimental results show that our probability tabu search algorithm yields better solutions than that the traditional method produced.

Key words: tabu search, VRP, PDP, PDPTW
