The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

A concise guide to existing and emerging vehicle routing problem variants (2019, background): “Vehicle routing algorithms are no longer used only to produce daily routes but also serve as evaluation tools for other strategic and tactical decisions such as facility location, fleet sizing, production, and inventory management (Andersson et al. 2010, Hoff et al. 2010).”
Modeling a green inventory routing problem with a heterogeneous fleet (2017, neutral): “Another key aspect of our work is that a heterogeneous fleet is used, because in real-world distribution problems, deliveries are usually implemented by several types of vehicles (Hoff et al., 2010; Koç et al., 2014).”
A Hybrid Genetic Algorithm for Multidepot and Periodic Vehicle Routing Problems (2012, background): “Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) formulations are used to model an extremely broad range of issues in many application fields, transportation, supply chain management, production planning, and telecommunications, to name but a few (Toth and Vigo, 2002; Hoff et al., 2010).”
