Exact and Heuristic Solutions of the Carrier-Vehicle Travelling Salesman Problem

I am currently studying exact approaches for solving the Carrier Vehicle Traveling Salesman Problem (CVTSP). The goal of the CV-TSP is to make a fast vehicle visit a given collection of points in shortest time while using a carrier autonomous vehicle as a base for possible multiple tours.
