The work of Pedersen et al. (2009) is one of the examples of using TS as the base of solution algorithm. They use the instance sets of Crainic, Gendreau, and Farvolden (2000) and Ghamlouche, Crainic, and Gendreau (2003). In comparison to a MIP solve, their algorithm shows robustness, and even outperforms the solver in 33 cases of the 78 instances they tested. Although the tuning of TS is dependent to the instance characteristics, in instances with particular structures like high fixed-variable cost ratio and/or loose capacity, TS outperforms the MIP solver. With the use of an independent multisearch strategy, Pedersen et al. (2009) could further more improve the results to 2% more. However, their TS still stands as a powerful algorithm.
