  • Abstract
    In this paper, a clonal selection algorithm for the open vehicle routing problem (OVRP) is presented, in which a new definition of antibodies´ affinity and algorithm of keeping antibodies´ diversity are introduced. Computational results on a set of benchmark problems are provided. Comparison with the best ones in literature shows that the clonal selection algorithm is efficient.
