Abstract:The effects of the use of parallel computing on the solution quality in relation to the additional compu￾tational costs were unknown to ORTEC. This research seeks to provide ORTEC with relevant insights into using parallel computing in the OHD software by providing a solution design that transfers a serial algorithm into a parallel algorithm. In this way, a new parallel algorithm that uses multiple construction and R&R methods is developed by modifying parameter settings from a single serial algorithm that is used to solve the VRP of Company X. The results show that our new parallel algorithm outperforms the current algorithm by 1.56% in terms of costs which shows that the use of parallel computing within OHD can significantly improve the solution quality
