SPIKE: As a developer I can simulate / validate the static and dynamic VRPTW with a submission

[TPGamesNL]

Description

The static Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (static VRPTW) is a side main goal of this project, and preferably we also implement the dynamic variant.

For the static variant, we want to have a validator, and for the dynamic variant we need a simulator.

The static part involves:

• A dummy solution for the VRPTW
• A validator script for the VRPTW to validate the dummy solution

The dynamic part involves:

• a dummy submission
• a simulator for running the submission

Acceptance Criteria

• [x] The static dummy solution can be validated locally
• [x] The dynamic dummy submission can be simulated locally

Progress at https://github.com/SEP-TU-e-2024/euro-neurips-vrp-2022-quickstart

There are 3 ways to use the repository:

• verify a solver for the static problem
• simulate a solver for the dynamic problem
• verify a static solution for the static problem

Each way is described in the README of the repository

Reviewed the installation process, noticed that the commands provided do not work directly on windows. When cloned into WSL everything worked fine. In general seems completed
