Optimal routes scheduling for municipal waste disposal garbage trucks using evolutionary algorithm and artificial immune system

Abstract

This paper describes an application of an evolutionary algorithm and an artificial immune systems to solve a problem of scheduling an optimal route for waste disposal garbage trucks in its daily operation. Problem of an optimisation is formulated and solved using both methods. The results are presented for an area in one of the Polish cities.
