    A Reputation-Based Model for Transportation Auctions

    • Monia Rekik, prés., Université Laval
    • Sehl Mellouli, Université Laval

    We propose a reputation-based model for winner determination problem in transportation procurement auctions where the allocation of long-term contracts to carriers is decided with respect to both bid ask prices and carriers reputation. The objective is to manage the trade-of between transport costs and the quality of service during operations. Computational results obtained by our model prove the importance of considering reputation in transportation auctions while selecting winning carriers.

    A Survey on Maritime Fleet Size and Mix Problems

    • Giovanni Pantuso, prés., Norwegian University of Science and Technology
    • Kjetil Fagerholt, Norwegian University of Science and Technology
    • Lars Magnus Hvattum, The Norwegian University of Science and Technology

    This talk presents a survey on maritime fleet size and mix problems. A typical, though simplified, version of the problem, is presented, including a mathematical formulation. The literature is surveyed and open research questions are discussed. The effect of including uncertainty is illustrated in the example problem.

    An Efficient Heuristic Approach for Fast Courier Fleet Management

    • Jacques Renaud, prés., Université Laval, CIRRELT
    • Angel Ruiz, Université Laval

    Fast courier services are provided by very specialized transportation companies to move letters and parcels within a given urban area in very short time. This paper focuses on the operations of a Quebec City’s company which performs daily around 1 000 requests. We developed a system which able us to evaluate the quality of the dispatching process. We also provide insights on the global improvements that may be obtained if a closer collaboration would be done with the major clients.

    Self-Imposed Time Windows in Vehicle Routing Problems

    • Ola Jabali, prés., École Polytechnique de Montréal
    • Roel Leus, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven
    • Tom Van Woensel, Eindhoven University of Technology
    • A.G. (Ton) de Kok, Eindhoven University of Technology

    Self-Imposed Time Windows (SITW) occur when a logistics service provider quotes a delivery time window to his customers. We incorporate SITW within the framework of the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP). We propose a heuristic solution approach combining a LP model with a tabu search procedure.
