Improving parcels transportation performance by introducing a hitchhiker parcel model
Résumé
Thanks to technological opportunities on data acquisition, broadcast and treatment in real time, new logistics opportunities are emerging quickly. These opportunities are about to change deeply the way we transport parcels through hyper-connected and open networks. In order to monitor the logistics flows on these routes and hubs, new ways of thinking are developed, like the Physical Internet paradigm. Because the current transport management systems should not be able to deal with this complex and open environment, we have to design new ways of monitoring parcels on the network. We describe here the \emph{hitchhiker parcel model}, a new paradigm allowing each parcels to take advantage of the local opportunities and beware the risks. The targeted organization described and the underlying questions have to be evaluated through performance indicators. The first experiments presented here aims to give first insights about the model evaluation and its relevance.
