Title
Column Generation Based Heuristic For The Three Dimensional Vehicle Loading Problem
Abstract
In this work we present a vehicle loading problem that consists of packing a given set of items into a minimum number of vehicles for delivery. A heuristic approach based on Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition is developed and tested on a widely available data set. A greedy search procedure is developed to speed up the column generation approach. A problem specific branching technique is used to generate integer solutions in a reasonable time. Numerical experimentation is done to compare the performance of the developed approach with the available results in the literature.
