디지털 정보 혁명과 정보 기술의 발달은 고객의 다양한 욕구를 유발하였고 점차 기업들의 격화된 경쟁하의 생존전략으로서 물류 서비스 향상을 위한 물류 흐름이 기업 경쟁력의 중요한 요소로 부상하고 있다. 또한 공급자와 소비자 간의 정보공유는 기능 중심에서 프로세스 중심이 되면서, 유연성과 고객 서비스를 극대화하기 위한 새로운 물류 개념을 요구하게 되었다. 현재까지 대부분의 수 배송 연구는 방문순서나 방문시간의 제약조건에 따라 수요처에 대한 도착시간 및 선행순서에 대한 제약이 없는 경우의 차량경로문제(VRP)나 시간 및 선행순서에 대한 제약이 있는 경우의 차량일정계획문제(VSP)로 연구되어져 왔다. 그러나 현실적으로는 배송센터에서 제약 조건에 따라 고객까지 차량일정계획 수립을 위한 시간 보다는 배차계획을 수립하는데 더 많은 시간이 소요되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문은 물류 서비스의 향상을 위한 배차계획 업무의 현실적인 제약 조건들을 고려하여 배차계획 시스템을 설계하고, 이 설계 모듈에 따라 배차계획의 수정작업 조정시간를 효율적이고 획기적으로 줄일 수 있는 배차계획 시스템의 발견적 알고리듬을 설계하고 구현토록 한다.

This paper is concerned with a vehicle routing model to assist in scheduling palletized cargo pickup and delivery so called the pickup and delivery problem with advance requests in a 2-echelon supply-chain system. In this study vehicles is dispatched and routed so that each request is picked up or delivered at its original and to its destination. The model provides point-to-point transportations based on advance requests. The assignment algorithm is developed and designed for using with on-line computers and it immediately provides arrangements to be made at the time requested. This algorithm also provides the best scheduling solutions and alternatives for both to system operators and requesters. According to this algorithm, we developed computer programs and show the sample results.

A scheduled airlift is the most critical part of the air transportation operations in ROK Air Force. The military cargo-plane routing problem is a PDPLS (pickup and delivery problem in which load splits and node revisits are allowed). The cargo which is transported by a military cargo-plane is measured in pallet. The efficiency of pallet needs to be considered with respect to its volume and weight. There are some guidelines about orders of priorities and regulations in the military air transportation. However, there are no methodologies which can raise the efficiency of flight scheduling using Operations Research (OR) theories. This research proposes the effective computing methodology and the related heuristic algorithms that can maximize the effectiveness of the path routing model.

In this paper we consider the problem of finding the triplet (S,${\pi}$,f), where $S{\subseteq}V$, ${\pi}$ is a sequence of nodes in S and $f:V{\backslash}S{\rightarrow}S$ for a given complete graph G=(V,E). In particular, there exist two costs, $c^V_{uv}$ and $c^D_{uv}$ for $(u,v){\in}E$, and the cost of triplet (S,${\pi}$,f) is defined as $\sum_{i=1}^{{\mid}S{\mid}}c^V_{{\pi}(i){\pi}(i+1)}+2$ ${\sum_{u{\in}V{\backslash}S}c^D_{uf(u)}$. This problem is motivated by the integrated routing of the vehicle and drone for urban delivery services. Since a well-known NP-complete TSP (Traveling Salesman Problem) is a special case of our problem, we cannot expect to have any polynomial-time algorithm unless P=NP. Furthermore, for practical purposes, we may not rely on time-exhaustive enumeration method such as branch-and-bound and branch-and-cut. This paper suggests the simple heuristic which is motivated by the MST (minimum spanning tree)-based approximation algorithm and neighborhood search heuristic for TSP.

We address the problem of determining the sequence of a vehicle with fixed capacity to visit n nodes at which a predetermined amount is picked up and/or delivered. The objective is to minimize the total travel distance of the vehicle, while satisfying the pick-up/delivery requirements and feasibility at all nodes. Existing methods for the problem allows the vehicle to visit a node twice, which is impractical in many real situations. We propose a heuristic algorithm, in which every node is visited exactly once. Computational results using random problems indicate that the proposed heuristic outperforms existing methods for practical range of the number of nodes in reasonable computation time.

The need for effective information systems that can help in efficient transportation management has become essential. This study presents the potential benefits of developing a decision support system used by a trucking company for routing and scheduling. Our study investigates how customer exibility factors affect the utilization of transportation resources and establishes a vehicle scheduling model for better allocation of transportation resources with a time window. The results show vehicle savings from 25% up to 70% per day given different levels of exibility in delivery times. Increased capacity utilization can be achieved by considering only customer exibility in the model. Our study implies that incorporating customer exibility into the information system can help transportation organizations have the capability to gain control over management to cut costs and improve service.

Personal rapid transit (PRT) is getting attention as a new form of transportation. It is energy efficient and provides the high level of passenger service. In this study, the dynamic PRT dispatching and routing problem is dealt with. Passengers request transportation service on a complex network, and an operating system monitors passenger arrivals and coordinates vehicles in real time. A new online dispatching and routing algorithm is proposed, which minimizes the total travel distance of vehicles and the waiting time of passengers. The algorithm dispatches vehicles by considering multiple vehicles' state and multiple passengers at the same time. In particular, finding the shortest-time path is attempted by taking into account the future congestion on lanes. Discrete-event simulation is employed to validate the performance of the proposed algorithm. The results show the algorithm in this study outperforms others.

This paper studies the method of delivering munitions using both drones and UGVs that are developing along with the 4th Industrial Revolution. While drones are more mobile than UGVs, their loading capacity is small, and UGVs have relatively less mobility than drones, but their loading capacity is better. Therefore, by simultaneously operating these two delivery means, each other's shortcomings may be compensated. In addition, on actual battlefields, time constraints are an important factor in delivering munitions. Therefore, assuming an actual battlefield environment with a time limit, we establish delivery routes that minimize delivery time by operating both drones and UGVs with different capacities and speeds. If the delivery is not completed within the time limit, penalties are imposed. We devised the hybrid genetic algorithm to find solutions to the proposed model, and as results of the experiment, we showed the algorithm we presented solved the actual size problems in a short time.

차량 경로 스케줄링 문제(VRSPTW, the Vehicle Routing and Scheduling Problem with Time Window)는 여러 고객의 시간 제약과 요구량을 만족시키면서 최소 이동 비용을 가지는 경로를 구성하는 문제이다. 이 문제는 NP-Hard 문제이기 때문에 해를 산출하는데 시간이 오래 걸린다. 본 연구는 VRSPTW를 빠른 시간 내에 최근사해를 구하기 위한 멀티 비용 함수(Multi Cost Function)를 갖는 개미 군집 최적화(Ant Colony Optimization)을 이용한 휴리스틱을 제안하였다. 멀티 비용 함수는 각 개미가 다음 고객 노드로 이동하기 위해 비용을 평가할 때 거리, 요구량, 각도, 시간제약에 대해 서로 다른 가중치를 반영하여 우수한 초기 경로를 구할 수 있도록 한다. 본 연구의 실험결과에서 제안된 휴리스틱이 Solomon I1 휴리스틱과 기회시간이 반영된 하이브리드 휴리스틱보다 효율적으로 최근사 해를 얻을 수 있음을 보였다.

Currently, issues related to freight at Vietnamese logistics companies are becoming more and more urgent because of typical problems in Vietnam such as traffic, infrastructure, and application of information technology. This problem has been studied by applying many different approaches such as Integer Programming (LP), Mixed Integer Programming (MIP), hybrid, meta search, … In this paper, we applied the ILP model in order to deal with the VRP problem in a small size logistics company which is very popular in Vietnam. The experiments showed promising results with some optimal solutions with some small extra costs.
