UTHAO : Pickup planner

Pickup Route Planer is to find a comparatively better route probably best one by considering minimum penalty (according to client's satisfaction) using Simulated Annealing Algorithm.

This program takes clients' location (longitude and latitude) and preferable time slot (available to pickup) and generates a route with an as low possible penalty and set a pickup time for each of the selected clients. If the client is not selected in this route plan is set to pick up time ' -1'.

For more details check the file named 'Problem Descriptions'.

Class Details:

• ClientAddressGeneratorService: Generates Random Clients according to a pre-defined base or headquarter address and write it in the userdefined file.
• AddressReaderService: Read Clients info and base/HQ info form the user provided csv data file.
• Util: Contains most of the algorithms like distance calculator and time need to visit a node and so on.
• SimulatedAnnealing: Modified implementation of Simulated Annealing Algorithm with INITIAL_TEMPERATURE = 999, MIN_TEMPERATURE = 0.99, and RATE_OF_COOLING = 0.005 and the penalty checker check penalty with O(N) (N = Number of Clients) complexity.
• PickupBoyDriver: Driver class to calculate pickup time ann penalty for the user input and find a relatively better route.
