Title: | Container drayage operations at intermodal terminals: a deterministic annealing approach | Authors: | CARIS, An JANSSENS, Gerrit K. |

Pre- and end-haulage by road represent an operational planning problem in intermodal freight transport. The efficiency of the road leg influences the competitive position of intermodal freight transport. A deterministic annealing algorithm is proposed to find near-optimal solutions with low computational effort. The algorithm is applied both as a post-optimizer and as an independent algorithm. Parameter settings are analysed with a fractional factorial design. Experimental results demonstrate the robustness of the deterministic annealing algorithm with respect to different problem characteristics and quality of the initial solution. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/14662 | ISBN: | 978-94-91216-79-4 | DOI: | 10.2991/978-94-91216-80-0_4 | Category: | B2 | Type: | Book Section | Validations: | vabb 2015 |
