search space of the problem is a combinatorial explosion,  
the trajectory-based sequential can only explore a subset of  
the search space, therefore, they easily fall into local optimal

I. INTRODUCTION  
The RCDMP asks for a tour with minimum waiting time  
sum so that it consumes not more than 푅푚푎푥 units of  
resource.  
The Resource-Constrained Deliveryman Problem  
(RCDMP) has not been studied much in literature.  
Informally, the RCDMP aims to find a tour with minimum  
waiting time sum so that it consumes no more than  
푅푚푎푥 units of resources, where 푅푚푎푥 is some constant.  
The resource consumption of a tour is the sum of the  
resource consumptions of its edges. In the special case,  
since resource-constraint is ignored, the RCDMP becomes  
the Deliveryman Problem (DMP) or Traveling Repairman  
Problem (TRP). The problem has applications in reality,  
e.g., disk head scheduling [1, 5, 6, 8, 17, 19].  
The RCDMP is a NP-hard problem; thus, a metaheuristic  
algorithm is a suitable approach for it in short computa-  
tion time. Previously, the only algorithm was developed  
in a trajectory-based metaheuristic approach to solve the  
RCDMP [4]. This algorithm starts with a single initial  
solution and, at each step of the search, the current solution  
is replaced by another solution found in its neighborhood.  
However, this algorithm may implement a strong intensi-  
fication strategy. However, its diversification may not be  
good enough. As a result, it gets stuck in local optima in  
some cases. Another approach is population-based which  
performs a search with multiple promising solutions, thus,  
its exploring search space is extended. As a result, the  
chance to obtain better solutions is higher.  
The RCDMP is at least as hard as DMP, therefore it is a  
NP-hard problem. The RCDMP is formulated as followings:  
Given a complete graph 퐾푛 = (푉, 퐸) where 푉 = 1, 2, . . . 푛  
is a set of vertices, and E is the set of edges. For each  
edge (푣푖, 푣 푗) ∈ 퐸, which connects the two vertices 푣푖 and

Algorithm 1 ACO-RVND  
In this paper, we propose a population-based algorithm  
that combines an Ant Colony algorithm (ACO) [7], and  
Random Variable Neighborhood Descent (RVND) [16].  
The two important features in our algorithm are that:  
Input: 퐾푛, 푆푝, and 휏 are the graph, the cost matrix,  
0
the size of ant population, and the initial amount of  
pheromone deposited, respectively.  
Output: The best solution 푇∗.  
• Two kinds of ants coexist in the ACO. In a com-  
putational experiment, the researchers [10] performed  
the feeding behavior by using intelligent ants, which  
can trail the pheromone exactly, and dull ants which  
cannot trail the pheromone. From results, the ant group  
that includes the dull ants can obtain more foods than  
the group consisting of only the intelligent ants. The  
dull ants are regarded as having a task that finds  
the new food sources by dawdle. It means that the  
coexistence of the intelligent and dull ant improves  
the effectiveness of the feeding behavior.  
while (The termination criterion of the ACO-RNVD is  
not satisfied) do  
{Step 1: The ACO step}  
Initiate pheromone;  
while (|푃| < 푆푝) do  
{Choose the type of ant. If the value of rd is less  
than 80, the ant depends on the intelligent type.  
Otherwise, it fails into dull type}  
푟푑 = random(100);

• To be successful, a search algorithm needs to establish  
a good ratio between exploration and exploitation.  
In our algorithm, the ACO explores the promising  
solution areas while the RVND exploits them with  
the hope of improving a solution. Extensive numerical  
experiments and comparisons with the state-of-the-art  
metaheuristic algorithms on 320 instances show that  
the proposed algorithm reaches better solutions in 303  
cases.

the paper, respectively.

II. THE PROPOSED ALGORITHM  
end for  
In this paper, we propose an algorithm which utilizes  
the advantages of both the ACO [7], and RVND [16].  
First, in the ACO algorithm [7], multiple solutions called  
“ants" coexist, and the ants drop pheromone on the path  
connecting the locations. Pheromone trails are updated  
depending on the behavior of the ants. The ants find a  
food source through paths having strong pheromone. By  
communicating with other ants according to the pheromone  
strength, the algorithm tries to find the optimal solution.  
Lastly, the RVND [16] is based on a simple principle of  
systematic switches between different neighborhoods.  
{Step 3: Update pheronome}  
if (improved==True) then  
Update pheronome information by (6), and (7);

1. Penalty on infeasible solution  
Our search is not constrained to feasible solutions. Dur-  
ing the search we penalize infeasible solutions by incorpo-  
rating a penalty term. For each solution 푇, let 퐿(푇) denote  
the total latency and let 푉(푇) denote the total violation of  
the constraint. The total latency violation 푉(푇) is computed  
on a tour basis with respect to the value 푅푚푎푥. Specifically,  
it is equal to  
A pseudocode of our algorithm is given in Algorithm 1.  
Our algorithm is repeated a number of times, and the best  
solution found is reported. In Step 1, the ACO is used to  
generate an initial ant population that is an input for the  
RVND in Step 2. In Step 2, to exploit promising solution  
spaces, the RVND is implemented with the best solution  
from the ACO. Our algorithm stops after 푚 iterations. If  
the best solution has not been improved. In the remaining  
of this section, more details about the three steps of our  
algorithm are given in Algorithm 1.

where LR is the resource consumption value in the current  
solution (feasible or infeasible).

Algorithm 2 Pick-Forward-Vertex(푣푖, 푟푑, 푁푘)  
2. Step 1: ACO  
Input: 푣푖, 푟푑, 푁푘 are the current vertex, a random number,  
and a set of unvisited vertices, respectively.  
Output: A next vertex v.  
Step 1 includes some small steps as follows:  
- Encoding for ants: We simply use the natural encoding,  
in which an ant individual is represented as a list of 푛  
vertices (푣 , 푣 , ..., 푣푘, ..., 푣푛), where 푣푘 is the 푘−th vertex  
푝푟표푆푢푚 = 0;

if (푟푑 ≤ 푎푛푡_푡푦푝푒) then  
to be visited. Each individual represents one possible tour.  
- Initializing parameters for the ACO: Let 휏푘−1푖 푗 be the  
amount of pheromone on the edge (푣푖, 푣 푗) so that the 푘−th  
ant uses to trail (푘 = 1, 2, ..., 푆푝). Initially, 휏 is set to 휏 ,  
{The second only uses the amount of phernomone as

respectively.  
푝표푤(훽[푖, 푗], 훽휇);  
- Selecting for the next vertex: Assume that, 푘−th ant  
needs to be chosen to go from vertex 푣푖 to a next vertex  
in an unvisited vertex set 푁푘. Our algorithm maintains two  
types of ant:  
The first uses the amount of phernomone thus, its proba-  
bility equation is as follows:  
end for  
for (푣 푗 ∈ 푁푘) do  
푝[푖, 푗] =  
푝표푤 (휏[푖, 푗],훽휏)×푝표푤 (휂[푖, 푗],훽휇)  
;

end for  
푟푑 = random(푝푟표푆푢푚);  
for (푣 푗 ∈ 푁푘 ) do  
푤ℎ푒푒푙푆푢푚 = 푤ℎ푒푒푙푆푢푚 + 푝[푖, 푗];

where 훽푟 , 훽휂, and 훽푔 are parameters, 휂푘푖 푗  
and |푁푘 | are the position of edge (푣푖, 푣 푗), and number of  
vertices in the tour, respectively). The selection of 푣 푗 is  
done by the roulette wheel selection [9]. The ants repeat  
choosing a next vertex until all vertices are visited. The  
detail in this step is given in Algorithm 2.  
- Updating Pheromone of 푘−ant: After 푘−ant has com-  
pleted the tour 푇푘, its deposited pheromone on 푇푘 is  
updated. We should note that the dull ants can deposit  
the pheromone although they cannot trail the pheromone.  
The mount of pheromone which an ant deposits on 푇푘 is  
calculated as follows:  
{The third cannot trail the pheromone as (3)}

where 휎 is a parameter. Since the k-ant finishes its tours,  
we update 휏푖 푗 of each edge (푣푖, 푣 푗) depending on Δ휏푘푖 푗 as  
follows:  
Remove N from the NL;

where 푝 ∈ (0, 1) is the pheromone trail decay coefficient.  
Solutions are then evaluated according to the weighted  
fitness function 퐿0 = 퐿+푃퐹×푉(푇), where PF is the penalty  
factor. If the obtained solution is feasible then LR ≤ 푅푚푎푥  
and 퐿0 = 퐿.  
3. Step 2: RVND  
To be successful, a search algorithm needs to estab-  
lish a good ratio between exploration and exploitation. In  
the proposed algorithm, the ACO is also combined with  
the RVND to keep a balance between exploration and  
34

exploitation. In this combination, the ACO explores the  
promising solution spaces while the RVND bases on a  
simple principle of systematically switches between differ-  
ent neighborhoods to exploit these spaces. In the RVND  
step, several neighborhoods are used such as remove-insert,  
reinsertion, swap-adjacent, swap, 2-opt, and or-opt in [16].  
In THE RCDMP, by using the known cost of the current  
solution, this operation can be done in constant time [4].  
Therefore, the running time of exploring the neighborhoods  
can be sped up. Six neighborhoods used in the step are  
described as followings: 1) Swap-adjacent: It swaps each  
pair of adjacent vertices. The complexity of exploring the  
neighborhood is 푂(푛); 2) Remove-insert moves each vertex  
in the solution at the end of it. The complexity of exploring  
the neighborhood is 푂(푛); 3) Reinsertion: One vertex is  
relocated to another position of the tour. The complexity  
of exploring the neighborhood is 푂(푛); 4) Swap: It tries  
to swap the positions of each pair of vertices in the single  
tour 푇. The complexity of exploring the neighborhood is  
푂(푛2); 5) 2-opt: It removes each pair of edges from the  
tour and reconnects them. The complexity of exploring  
the neighborhood is 푂(푛2); 6) Or-opt: Three adjacent  
vertices are reallocated to another position of the tour.  
The complexity of exploring the neighborhood is 푂(푛2). A  
pseudocode of the RVND algorithm is given in Algorithm  
3.  
• The RCDMP dataset in [4]: Cost matrix elements, 푐푖 푗,  
are independent and uniformly chosen random integers  
in the range [0, 200]. Resource matrix elements, 푟푖 푗,  
are independent and uniformly chosen integers in the  
range [0, 200 - 푐푖 푗]. The cost matrix 퐶 = [푐푖 푗] and 푅 =  
[푟푖 푗] are generally symmetric and metric. Maximum  
resource usage, 푅푚푎푥, is computed using the following  
formula:  
∑ ∑

푅푚푎푥 = d훼 ×

푟푖 푗푥푖푟푗e

푖∈푉 푗 ∈푉  
In the above formula, 푥푖푐푗 represent the optimal solution  
of the unconstrained DMP with the cost matrix 푐푖 푗.  
Similarly, 푥푖푟푗 represent the optimal solution of the  
problem  
푛−1  
∑
푟(푣푖, 푣푖+1) → min,  
푖=1  
where the cost matrix is defined by the matrix 푟푖 푗. For  
the problem, we choose the Concorde tool to solve  
exactly the problem. In the equation, 훼 is a parameter,  
that provides means for controlling tightness of the  
resource constraint. When 훼 = 0, the resource con-  
straint is very tight. On the other hand, when 훼 = 1,  
the resource constraint has no effect on the optimal  
solution. We choose 훼 = 0, 0.5, 0.75 and 1 and vary the  
size of the instances between 30 to 100 vertices with  
the different values of 훼 to create 320 instances. For  
unconstrained DMP with a small number of instances  
(푛 = 30, 40, 50), we use the exact algorithm in [1, 2]  
to solve. Currently, there is no exact algorithm in  
the literature that can solve the problem with up to  
100 vertices. Therefore, we use the metaheuristic in  
[3] to obtain near-optimal solutions. All instances are  
4. Step 3: Update pheromone  
If the new best solution is found, we use it to update  
pheromone value. The pheromone information Δ휏푖∗푗 be-  
queathed to the ACO in the next iteration is calculated as  
follows:

and 200 customers, respectively. In total, there are 100  
instances.

The experiments are conducted on a personal computer,  
which is equipped with an Intel Pentium core i7 duo 2.10  
Ghz CPU and 8 GB bytes RAM memory.  
The selection of pheromone-related parameters are  
conducted in preliminary experiments. The parameter  
푎푛푡_푡푦푝푒 is set to 80 because it has been reported that  
about 20 percent of the dull ant and 80 percent of the  
intelligent ant live in the real ant’s world in [10]. For the

This configuration determined in multiple combinations are  
tested and the one who has presented the best solution  
is chosen. In Table 1, we define a range for each of  
the five parameters that yields 1200 different parameter  
combinations and run the algorithm for some selected  
instances of these combinations. Each run is limited to 1000  
iterations but was stopped when the best-known solution  
is found. This exhaustive search for the best parameter  
combinations is useful as a benchmark for evaluating the  
algorithm. Looking at the parameter combinations, we find  
the following settings so that our algorithm obtains the best  
solutions: 훽푟 = 5, 훽휂 = 5, 훼 = 1, 푝 = 1, and 휏 = 10.

Lastly, the last aspect to discuss is the stop criterium of the  
algorithm. The parameter m is set to 10 to balance between

et al.’s algorithm [4]. The improvement is significant since  
it can be observed that our algorithm is capable of finding  
the new best solutions for the 303 RCDMP-instances. Note  
that: the found-best solutions is highlighted in bold line.

Table 7 compares the results of our algorithm with the  
lower bounds obtained from [19] with 100, 200, 500, and  
1000 vertices for DMP. Our algorithm gives much better  
solutions than those of GVNS-1 [17], GRASP-VND and  
GRASP-VNS [19] for all instances. In comparison with  
GVNS-2 [17], and TS [3], for most cases, our algorithm  
gives the same results.

computation time and efficiency. This parameter setting has  
thus been used in the following experiments.  
Table 8 presents the average results of our algorithm  
on instances with up to 150 vertices selected from the  
TSPLIB [23]. These solutions are compared with optimal  
values, found by Abeledo et al. [1]. It is noteworthy that  
our algorithm obtains the optimal solutions with up to  
100 vertices such as KroA100, KroB100, KroC100, and  
KroD100 at reasonable amount of time. The experimental  
results show that the proposed algorithm can be applied  
well to the DMP (note that: the DMP is another variant of  
the RCDMP when resource limit is ignored), though it is  
not designed to solve it. Therefore, our algorithm can easily  
adapt to similar variants of the problem.  
2. Bounds  
To evaluate the efficiency of the metaheuristic algorithm,  
its solution can be compared to 1) the optimal solution  
(OPT); and 2) a good upper bound (UB). We define the  
improvement of our algorithm with respect to Best.Sol  
(Best.Sol is the best solution found by our algorithm)  
in comparison with the optimal solution (푔푎푝 [%]), and  
1
upper bound (푔푎푝 [%]) in percent respectively as follows:

Table 9 shows that the optimal solutions for the DMP  
are generally not good solutions to the CRDMP on the  
same instance. Specifically, our algorithm is better than the  
optimal solution for the DMP using the CRDMP objective  
function since the difference between their objective values  
is up to 6.24%. Although the difference is not large, all  
these optimal solutions for the DMP are not feasible solu-  
tions for the CRDMP. Therefore, the methods designed for  
the DMP may not be adapted easily to solve the CRDMP.  
Developing an algorithm for the CRDMP is very necessary.

We choose several state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms  
for RCDMP, and DMP [4, 17, 19] as a baseline in our  
research. Note that: The value of LB is described in [17]  
while the value of UB is given by the algorithm in [4].  
3. Results and Comparative Analysis  
The tables present Best.Sol, Aver.Sol, and T, respectively.  
Tables from 2 to 5 compare the results of our algorithm with  
the solutions obtained by Ban et al. [4] for the RCDMP-  
instances. Column TS in Tables 2 to 5 corresponds to  
the best solution of Tabu Search [4]. Column 훼 is cor-  
responding to the results with different resource constraint  
values. The results in Table 6, which are the average values  
calculated from Table 2 to 5. Tables 7 to 8 compare  
our algorithm with the state-of-the-art metaheusitics in  
The average scaled running time of our algorithm is  
better than those of A. Salehipour et al.’s [19], and grow  
quite moderate with the one of Mladenovic et al.’s [17] and  
Ban et al.’s algorithm [4].  
IV. DICUSSIONS  
In general, metaheuristic is a suitable approach for  
solving the NP-hard problems in short computation time.  
Recently, a metaheuristic for solving the problem has been  
proposed. The algorithm is developed in a sequential heuris-  
tic approach which starts with a single initial solution, and  
at each step of the search, the current solution is replaced  
by another solution found in its neighborhood. Since the  
search space of the problem is a combinatorial explosion,  
these algorithms only explore a subset of the search space.  
Therefore, they can easily fall into the local optimal in  
some cases. Our hybrid algorithm that brings together the  
components of the ACO, and RVND can overcome this  
terms of 푔푎푝 for DMP-instances. Table 9 compares the  
2
optimal solutions with the best-found CRDMP-solutions  
using the CRDMP objective function. For DMP-instances,  
the optimal solutions are extracted from the exact algorithm  
in [2].  
Tables 2 to 5 compare the results obtained by Ban et al.  
[4] to our algorithm for 320 instances. The results show  
that our algorithm reaches better solutions at a reasonable  
amount of time. Regarding the average 푔푎푝 in Table 6,  
our algorithm quality improves 7.20% compared with Ban

drawback by searching from multiple promising solution  
areas, thus, its exploring search space is extended. As a  
result, the chances of finding better solutions are higher. To  
summarize, our scheme includes new features as follows:  
and RVND to solve the problem. Extensive numerical  
experiments on benchmark instances show that on average,  
our algorithm finds the new best solutions in 303 instances.  
For close variants of the problem, our algorithm can reach  
the optimal solutions for the problems with 100 vertices in  
a reasonable amount of time. When the problem size is too  
large, it takes longer time to operate the whole algorithm,  
lowering the efficiency of finding the optimum. In these  
cases, to reduce the running time, parallelizing ACO [14]  
and divide and conquer ACO [13] can be applied to large-  
scale instances. This is a topic for future research.  
• Two kinds of ants coexist in the ACO. The ant group  
that includes the dull ants can obtain more foods than  
the group consisting of only the intelligent ants. It is  
suitable in the real ant’s world.  
• Every search algorithm needs to address the explo-  
ration and exploitation of a search space. Exploration is  
the process of visiting entirely new regions of a search  
space, whilst exploitation is the process of visiting  
those regions of a search space within the neighbor-  
hood of previously visited points. To be successful,  
a search algorithm needs to establish a good ratio  
between exploration and exploitation. The ACO is also  
combined with the RVND to keep a balance between  
exploration and exploitation. In this combination, the  
ACO allows us to explore the promising solution  
spaces while the RVND based on a simple principle of  
systematic switches between different neighborhoods  
to exploit in these spaces.

Our experiments not only prove these expectations but  
also indicate that this approach finds the new best known  
solutions in the 303 instances in comparison with the-  
state-of-art metaheuristic. Moreover, our experiments show  
that the methods designed for the DMP [3, 17, 19] may  
not be adapted easily to solve the CRDMP since the  
optimal solutions for the DMP are infeasible solutions for  
the CRDMP. Therefore, it is important for developing a  
metaheuristic for the CRDMP .  
We discuss more about some optimization techniques  
based on swarm intelligence. There are many optimiza-  
tion techniques such as Genetic Algorithm [9], Particle  
Swarm Optimization (PSO) [12], Artificial Bee Colony  
(ABC) [11], and Cuckoo Search (CS) [20], etc. In fact,  
no optimization technique is better than the others in all  
cases. However, in the paper, the ACO algorithm is used  
to solve the problem because: 1) the field of ACO has  
attracted a large number of researchers, and nowadays a  
large number of research results of both experimental and  
theoretical nature exists; 2) Its efficiency is demonstrated  
through solving the other variants of problem (Traveling  
Salesman Problem (TSP) [22], Vehicle Routing Problem  
(VRP) [18], ...); 3) it is very understandable and fast to  
implement.
