This paper introduces and studies real-time vehicle rerouting problems with time windows, applicable to delivery and/or pickup services that undergo service disruptions due to vehicle breakdowns. In such problems, one or more vehicles need to be rerouted, in real-time, to perform uninitiated services, with the objective to minimize a weighted sum of operating, service cancellation and route disruption costs. A Lagrangian relaxation based-heuristic is developed, which includes an insertion based-algorithm to obtain a feasible solution for the primal problem. A dynamic programming based algorithm solves heuristically the shortest path problems with resource constraints that result from the Lagrangian relaxation. Computational experiments show that the developed Lagrangian heuristic performs very well. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
