Survey on Routing Services for Smart Delivery in Urban Environments

Abstract

The problems of routing in cities are examined in this survey and highlight key points that need to be considered for smart delivery, which is time-restricted and cost-effective. Smart cities require smart services and applications to deal with their routing problems. This paper provides a brief classification of the route planning algorithms and a taxonomy of the routing problems and existing services. Taking into consideration issues related to time, cost, destination, temporal penalties during operations, and other parameters, a survey for solving a multi-objective routing problem is offered. The survey concludes with a comparison of the most promising research solutions. © 2020 IEEE.
