Subject

What/How (AI) algorithms can be used by future self driving delivery cars to efficiently solve the pickup-and-delivery problem with time-windows, where a fleet of delivery vehicles must collect and deliver items according to the demand of customers and their opening hours. The objectives are to minimize the fleet size and to assign a sequence of customers to each truck of the fleet minimizing the total distance traveled.
