Abstract
The multi-objective optimization problem of vehicle routing is a hot issue in many industries in recent years, because it is more fully considered for real-world constraints and has always been a hot issue in shipping transport. Vehicle path planning issues with time window constraints are also the most concerned. Therefore, this paper presents a large number of papers on vehicle routing problem with time window limit, and details the application of various algorithms in this problem. In this paper, several novel and widely applied algorithms are introduced and compared.
