Intelligent Freight Transport Systems : Visions For Real-Time Distribution Planning Overo, Helene Martine ; Larsen, Allan ; Ropke, Stefan
Publication details: Bryssel ITS in daily life: 16th world congress and exhibition on intelligent transport systems and services, Stockholm 21-25 September 2009. Paper, 2009Description: 8 sSubject(s): Bibl.nr: VTI P1835:16 [World]Location: Abstract: The Danish innovation project entitled "Intelligent Freight Transport Systems" aims at developing prototype systems integrating public intelligent transport systems (ITS) with the technology in vehicles and equipment as well as the IT-systems at various transport companies. The objective is to enhance the efficiency and lower the environmental impact in freight transport. In this paper, a pilot project involving real-time waste collection at a Danish waste collection company is described, and a solution approach is proposed. The problem corresponds to the dynamic version of the waste collection problem which can be formulated as a dynamic version of the vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW).| Current library | Status | |
