Decision Making Methods in Transportation

The northwest corner route

Let us start by choosing x11 (this is the first element in the ‘northwest corner’ of the table). Then if xij was chosen the last time and source location i has any remaining products to distribute, xij+1 should be chosen next (move one column to the right). If source location i has no remaining products to distribute, next select xi+1j (move one line down) (Hillier and Lieberman 2001a). In the example presented below, the solution is shown in Table 34. (Note that in these methods we differentiate the matrix of the cost values and the matrix of the decision variables. The identification of the matrix specifically discussed here is located in the upper left cell by the cij or xij sign.

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.
