Abstract :
It has set up a mathematics model of VRP problem with time windows and has proposed a kind of improved immune genetic algorithm. On the basis of the standard genetic algorithm, it joins in the self-adaptation cross operator and heuristic mutation operator based on triangle show, and uses niche technique to improve the immune algorithm. The experimental result indicates that this algorithm has better global search ability and restricts speed. It can effectively solve the VRP problem in the logistics and distribution.
