Rethinking Public Transportation and Logistics as Collaborative Scenarios
Gunter Teichmann, Frank-Michael Dittes, Uwe Arnold
A collaborative approach to optimizing resource utilization of
vehicles by the formation of dynamic networks in logistics and
passenger transport has been developed. It maintains knowledge
about free partial freight and free transport capacities as well as the
transport possibilities of the participating companies. Privacy
interests of different companies are taken into account by defining
trust circles sharing among their members only specific kinds of
information. The approach is implemented in a prototypic way as a
cloud computing solution capable of optimization and cost
simulations carried out on the basis of real data. Full Text
