This book identifies and furthers the state of the art in green
logistics and transportation with a supply chain focus. It includes
discussions on concerns and linkages across policy, corporate
strategy and operations and inter-organizational relationships and
practices. Separate sections are assigned to discuss issues related
to greening of logistics and transportation functions, including
green logistics network, green land transportation and green air
and water transportation. Linking research with practice is another
important feature of the book as various techniques and research
methodologies are utilized to explain and analyze green logistics
and transportation concepts and issues. The authors come from
throughout the world from a variety of backgrounds (e.g. policy,
technical, engineering, and management backgrounds) to provide
solutions and insights from their regional and global perspectives
to some of the world's most critical green logistics and
transportation issues.
Hardbound. This volume comprises twenty papers originally presented
at the 4th Meeting of the EURO (Association of European Operational
Research Societies) held in Newcastle. Topics covered at the
conference included: traffic assignment; estimation of
origin-destination flows; traffic modelling; traffic management and
control; transport network analysis and design; transportation
planning methods; routing and scheduling; and ITS
applications.Bringing together academics, consultants and civil
servants with a shared interest in the application of Operational
Research techniques for solving transport problems, this collection
addresses key recent developments in the theory and applications of
transportation science, particularly those based on OR methods such
as optimisation, mathematical programming, stimulation, and
artificial intelligence.
In this title, experts in public transport address the current
problem of improving public transit systems by taking advantage of
new technologies and advanced modelling techniques. The key areas
open to improvement are service planning and operations management.
"The ISTTT" series is the main gathering for the worlds
transportation and traffic theorists, and the resulting volume is a
field-defining milestone featuring the most promising thinking and
theoretical developments. It reflects the major renewal the field
is experiencing, with the entry of many new scientists from a
variety of disciplines, and the mutual coexistence of a growing
number of theoretical perspectives and modelling cultures. It
includes peer-reviewed international contributions in the field of
transportation and traffic theory. It addresses planning, design,
and management of transportation systems.
