Abstract
In this chapter, different variants of routing problems with profits will be discussed. Based on what is available in literature, mostly variants of the orienteering problem will be discussed. A first variant considers capacity constraints, since these appear frequently in many practical applications. Next, multi-objective orienteering problems, explicitly considering different types of profits separately are discussed. Time-dependent and stochastic travel times are also relevant for most practical applications. These are considered together with time-dependent and stochastic profits. More and more routing problems are considered together with inventory management. For routing problems with profits, this leads to the inventory orienteering problem, which is discussed below.
