Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) One of the election activities in a public office election is the posting of posters for candidates on the day of the public announcement. Usually, election staff members of each candidate share the responsibility of posting posters from the election office to poster boards, and return to the election office after having put up the number of posters they are responsible for. This can be thought of as a type of the Vehicle Routing Problem, in which the election office is the depot and the poster boards are customers. In this report, we define this problem as the Posting Poster Problem for Public Office Election and discuss a method for finding its optimal solution. Specifically, using the real placement of poster boards in Noda City, Chiba Prefecture as an example, we discuss the solution search performance of an exact method and heuristic methods when using the empirically employed grouping for the poster boards.
