Decision Making Methods in Transportation


Introduction

The transportation problem was one of the original applications of linear programming (LP) models. We can define the basic problem as follows: if a company manufactures products at source location m; let us give these source locations the following indexes: i=1,,m. The product generated at source location i is ai. The demand for the product is distributed among n different absorption locations; let us give these absorption locations the following indexes: j=1,,n. The demand at the jth absorption location is bj. The objective of the company is to deliver products from the source locations to the absorption locations at a minimum cost considering that the delivery cost of one unit cij from source location i to absorption location j is linear. Accordingly, the delivery cost of units xij from source location i to absorption location j is cijxij (http://econweb.ucsd.edu/~jsobel/172aw02/notes8.pdf).

The content of the book fits to the teaching program of the subject titled ‘Decision making methods’ taught at Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME) Faculty of Transportation Engineering and Vehicle Engineering. The book firstly introduces the most frequently applied general approaches of solving linear optimisation problems and then discusses a few special decision support models. In the course of the investigation the book discusses the models from theory to practice, especially considering transportation related problems and models. The introduced models can efficiently support transportation related decision making processes. Therefore, it can fructify for its readers in the field of transportation management, transportation process coordination and transportation system operation.
