  • Abstract
    The paper is to develop the applicability of algorithms when programming vehicles and routes in supply logistics of automobile accessories. Brand and Bound, Genetic Algorithm, Routing First - Cluster Second, and their combination are employed to facilitate the scheme at as low operational costs and short transporting time as possible and result in a main evaluation that quantities of suppliers have effects on the efficiency of those algorithms. Therefore, logistics firms can take respective advantages of them to manage the routing problems of different features.
