IBM ILOG Dispatcher User's Manual > The Basics > Solving a Vehicle Routing Problem > Review Exercises

  1. What are the two phases to finding a solution using Dispatcher?
  2. What is a neighborhood?
  3. Rewrite the example to sequentially generate first solutions using the following predefined first solution heuristics: IloSavingsGenerate, IloSweepGenerate, IloNearestDepotGenerate, IloNearestAdditionGenerate, and IloInsertionGenerate. Analyze the output to see how the different first solution heuristics change the first solution and its cost.
