Grant: Discovery Grants Program - Individual
HEC Montréal
$40,000.00
Logistics and transportation
FY 2010-11
Summary
The aim of the research program is to further the study and development of mathematical models and solution algorithms for three families of problems arising in logistics and transportation: network design, vehicle routing and terminal management. In each case, the objectives of the program are 1) to gain a better understanding of the basic structure of the problems studied, 2) to develop appropriate formulations of these problems, and 3) to design efficient algorithms capable of solving large-scale instances within short computing times.
