Integration of Load Carriers in a Decentralized Routing Concept for Transport Logistics Networks

چکیده
In the field of transport logistics, the planning of routes is usually executed centrally. However, current trends in transport logistics exhibit higher degrees of dynamics and complexity. Central algorithms are not adequate in handling these new challenges. Therefore, new solutions are required. Within this context, the Distributed Logistics Routing Protocol (DLRP) for the autonomous and decentralized routing in transport logistic networks has been developed. In previous work, two types of logistic entities have been integrated within the DLRP, transport vehicles and transport goods. In order to evaluate the performance of the DLRP in scenarios, which are closer to reality, load carriers are integrated into the DLRP as a new type of logistic entities. Load carriers can be applied as supporting components for the transport of goods. Within this work, the concept of the integration of load carriers is presented. Furthermore, the influences of the integration are investigated. For that, different scenarios are generated, which enable the comparison with simulations without integrated load carriers. Key-Words: Autonomous control Distributed logistics routing protocol (DLRP) – Transport logistics – Routing algorithm – Load carriers

The increase of complexity and dynamics leads to new challenges in transport logistics networks. Current routing algorithms of central control are pushed to their limits in handling these new challenges. This leads to the development of an autonomously controlled routing protocol, the Distributed Logistics Routing Protocol (DLRP), which allows a better handling of the new requirements. Within t...

To realise an autonomous control for transport networks it is attempted to transfer well known and approved routing protocols from data communication to transport problems. Here structural differences between data and transportation networks prevent a direct transfer of the protocols. In transportation networks not one but several diverse and particularly adapted protocols are needed, which hav...
