This book explores the methodological and application developments
of network design in transportation and logistics. It identifies
trends, challenges and research perspectives in network design for
these areas. Network design is a major class of problems in
operations research where network flow, combinatorial and mixed
integer optimization meet. The analysis and planning of
transportation and logistics systems continues to be one of the
most important application areas of operations research. Networks
provide the natural way of depicting such systems, so the optimal
design and operation of networks is the main methodological area of
operations research that is used for the analysis and planning of
these systems. This book defines the current state of the art in
the general area of network design, and then turns to its
applications to transportation and logistics. New research
challenges are addressed. Network Design with Applications to
Transportation and Logistics is divided into three parts. Part I
examines basic design problems including fixed-cost network design
and parallel algorithms. After addressing the basics, Part II
focuses on more advanced models. Chapters cover topics such as
multi-facility network design, flow-constrained network design, and
robust network design. Finally Part III is dedicated entirely to
the potential application areas for network design. These areas
range from rail networks, to city logistics, to energy transport.
All of the chapters are written by leading researchers in the
field, which should appeal to analysts and planners.
