A branch-and-price algorithm for a team orienteering problem with fixed-wing drones

This paper formulates a team orienteering problem with multiple fixed-wing drones and develops a branch-and-price algorithm to solve the problem to optimality. Fixed-wing drones, unlike rotary drones, have kinematic constraints associated with them, thereby preventing them to make on-the-spot turns...
