It is known, that concurrent computing can be applied to heuristicmethods (e.g. simulated annealing) for combinatorial optimizationto shorten time of computation. This paper presents a communicationscheme for message passing environment, tested on the known optimizationproblem - VRPTW. Application of the scheme allows speed-up withoutworsening quality of solutions - for one of Solomon's benchmarkingtests the new best solution was found.
