Title: | Integrating empty container allocation with vehicle routing decisions | Authors: | BRAEKERS, Kris JANSSENS, Gerrit K. CARIS, An |
Issue Date: | 2010 | Source: | 24th Belgian Conference in Operations Research, Luik, Belgium; 28/01/2010-29/01/2010. | Abstract: | The problem of managing empty containers at a regional level involves efficiently repositioning empty containers between importers, exporters, intermodal terminals, inland container depots and ports. In the past the problem has been divided into two subproblems: an empty container allocation problem and a vehicle routing problem. This paper shows the advantage of integrating allocation and routing decisions into a single model. Model formulations and numerical experiments are discussed. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/11394 | Category: | C2 | Type: | Conference Material |
