Classical-quantum hybrid approach to multi-hop routing in cargo logistics

An optimal route can be determined for delivering an item through a logistics system where vehicles have multiple stops when traveling along routes. The optimal route is determined using a hybrid system employing a classical computing device and a quantum annealer. The classical device reduces the search space that allows the quantum annealer to determine a more optimal solution. In an aspect, a routing graph comprising nodes and edges is populated from routes of vehicles, where the nodes identify locations and the edges represent routing data. At least a portion of the nodes and edges is removed to form a refined routing graph. For an origin-destination input, the refined routing graph can be filtered according to a first set of routing constraints to form a reduced route search space. A quantum annealer is invoked according to an objective and a different second set of routing constraints.

Optimal route planning and vehicle capacity utilization with management of incompatible commodities in logistics

Logistics planning with optimal route planning and optimal vehicle capacity utilization, while addressing incompatible commodities is NP-hard problem. A method and system for optimal route planning and vehicle capacity utilization with management of incompatible commodities in logistics is disclosed. For high volume of commodities exceeding vehicle capacity at a given pickup location and need of separating incompatible commodities present at same pickup location across vehicles, the locations are split into nodes. Further, the multiple nodes are clustered using a customized clustering technique and a first level vehicle assignment is performed per cluster. Furthermore, with the created nodes and assigned vehicles per cluster an optimization model defined by an object value (O) is created for each cluster. It is solved using a quantum hybrid solver that minimizes the object value under defined constraints. The solution obtained provides an optimal route with optimal capacity utilization for each vehicle for each cluster.
