摘要

In this work, we present the first 2-index stage-based formulation for the Flying Sidekick Traveling Salesman Problem (FSTSP). Additionally, we propose a Construct-Merge-Solve and Adapt (CMSA) algorithm designed to generate high-quality feasible solutions. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm consistently produces good solutions in a fraction of the time required by state-of-the-art mixed-integer linear programming solvers, which often struggle to find even the first feasible solution for large and practical instances.
