The specification of logistics in the Norwegian and Swedish national freight model systems : model scope, structure and implementation plan Jong, Gerard de et al
Utgivningsinformation: Santa Monica, CA RAND Europe, 2004Beskrivning: 168 sÄmnen: Onlineresurser: Abstrakt: In a project for the Work Group for transport analysis in the Norwegian national transport plan and the Samgods group in Sweden, RAND Europe, together with Solving International, Solving Bohlin & Strömberg and Michael Florian of INRO Canada, has produced a specification of a logistics model as part of the Norwegian and Swedish national freight model systems. The national model systems for freight transport in both countries are lacking logistic elements (such as the use of distribution centres). This report contains the outcomes of a project to specify how a new logistics module for these model systems could look like. It includes both the scope and structure of a logistics model, as well as an implementation plan. This final report was made for freight transport modellers with an interest in including logistics into (national) freight transport planning models, in particular the Norwegian and Swedish national model systems for freight transport. RAND Europe is an independent not-for-profit policy research organisation that serves the public interest by improving policymaking and informing public debate. Clients are European governments, institutions, and firms with a need for rigorous, impartial, multidisciplinary analysis of the hardest problems they face. This report has been peerreviewed in accordance with RAND's quality assurance standards (see http://www.rand.org/about/standards/) and therefore may be represented as a RAND Europe product.In a project for the Work Group for transport analysis in the Norwegian national transport plan and the Samgods group in Sweden, RAND Europe, together with Solving International, Solving Bohlin & Strömberg and Michael Florian of INRO Canada, has produced a specification of a logistics model as part of the Norwegian and Swedish national freight model systems.
