Auction Settings Impacts on the Performance of Truckload Transportation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper compares the performance of different sequential auction settings for the procurement of truckload services. In this environment, demands arrive randomly over time and are described by pick up, delivery locations and hard timewindows. Upon demand arrival, carriers compete for the loads. Different auction and information disclosure settings are studied. Learning methodologies are discussed and analyzed. Simulation results are presented.

متن کاملCollaborative Transportation Planning of Less-Than-Truckload Freight: Request Exchange through a Route-based Combinatorial Auction
Collaborative transportation planning (CTP) within a coalition of small and mid-sized freight carriers can be used as a powerful instrument to improve the operational efficiency of the coalition members. In such coalitions, transportation requests acquired from different freight carriers are exchanged among coalition members in order to reduce the total fulfillment costs. We consider the CTP fo...
متن کاملTransportation Service Procurement Using Combinatorial Auction
Auction is a mechanism of selling distinct assets that can be both physical objects and virtual objects. Examples of virtual objects are the rights to use assets like airport time slots and FCC spectrum, or to service truckload delivery routes in a transportation network. Under some situations bidding on combinations of objects can render lower total price compare with bidding the objects one a...
