Abstract: The main objective of the present work is to elaborate the most effective algorithm for solving the Multi-Depot Arc Routing Problem (MDARP), taking the Randomized Sharp as base algorithm and starting point, and particularly to study different alternatives for developing the edge-to-depot assignment. Concrete applications of this problem are garbage collection, electricity meter reading, mail distribution and door-to-door selling. To accomplish this several edge-to-depot allocation strategies in conjunction with variations on the Randomized Sharp algorithm were implemented in the Java language and tested against one another and using the existing benchmarks for this problem.
