  • A Dynamic Real-Time Fleet Management System for Incident Handling in City Logistics

    Zeimpekis, V., Giaglis, G., Minis, I.
    IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference, Stockholm, 30 May-1 June 2005.

    Unexpected incidents, such as adverse traffic, unavailability of parking space and vehicle breakdowns, that occur during urban deliveries, lead to delays, higher costs, and inferior customer service. This paper presents the architecture of a real-time fleet management system that handles unforeseen events by monitoring distribution vehicles and by recommending intelligent re-routing interventions in order to improve urban delivery performance.

  • Real-time Decision Support Systems in Urban Distributions: Opportunities afforded by mobile and wireless technologies

    Giaglis, G. M., Minis, I., Tatarakis, A. Zeimpekis, V.
    Proc. of the 3rd International ECR Research Symposium, Athens Greece, 11-12 September 2003.

    The proliferation and widespread attention being paid to mobile and wireless technologies, coupled with the advanced capabilities for accurate location monitoring of moving vehicles and products, have given new impetus to urban distribution process management. Incorporating such technologies in vehicle routing systems can yield ample opportunities for improving overall supply chain execution efficiency and effectiveness. This paper proposes a generic mobile real-time integrated decision support system for urban distribution, emphasizing on the innovations provided by advanced crisis management and exception handling possibilities through real-time rerouting applications, hierarchical divide-and-conquer algorithms, and cost-effective local optimisation of routing schedules.
