Pro-active dynamic vehicle routing : real-time control and request-forecasting approaches to improve customer service

Pro-active dynamic vehicle routing real-time control and request-forecasting approaches to improve customer service

This book deals with transportation processes denoted as the Real-time Distribution of Perishable Goods (RDOPG). The book presents three contributions that are made to the field of transportation. First, a model considering the minimization of customer inconvenience is formulated. Second, a pro-acti...
