Hi,

I am trying to write a vehicle routing problem as follows.


Is there anyway to declare a dummy node that has 0 values of time,demand and 0 distance to every node.And every vehicle must start and end on this dummy node?

 

 Thanks.

 

 

/* number of vehicles available */
%let num_vehicles = 8;
/* capacity of each vehicle */
%let capacity = 3000;
/* node, x coordinate, y coordinate, demand time */
data vrpdata;
input node x y demand time;
datalines;

create data node_data from [i] x y;
create data edge_data from [i j k]=
{<i,j> in ARCS, k in VEHICLES: UseArc[i,j,k].sol > 0.5}
x1=x[i] y1=y[i] x2=x[j] y2=y[j] linecolor=color[k];
quit;

 

/* create solution data set */
str color {k in VEHICLES} =
['red' 'green' 'blue' 'black' 'orange' 'gray' 'maroon' 'purple'];
create data node_data from [i] x y;
create data edge_data from [i j k]=

Node 1 plays the role of your dummy node.  You just need to modify the distances, as shown in this doc example and pages 8-9 of this SAS Global Forum 2014 paper.
