abstract
Problems in transportation and logistics had to be tackled long before computers and Operational Research (OR) became available to support decision making. After the first optimization models were developed, OR has substantially contributed in making transportation systems efficient and companies with complex transportation and logistics problems competitive. Over the years, technology has evolved and the same has done OR. In this paper, the history of problems and OR contributions in transportation and logistics will be shortly reviewed together with the evolution of technology. Then, the future trends in this area will be discussed together with potential OR contributions.
Conclusions
Recent technological and automotive advances are rapidly changing the way supply chains are managed and goods and people are transported. Economic pressure pushes companies to become more efficient and effective by also taking advantage of the technological advances. At the same time, institutions are driven by the sustainability goal, intended as the ability to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. It is expected that the huge economic impact of logistic costs on companies and of transportation on the environment, together with new arising business opportunities, will rapidly change transportation and logistics. Operational research has given fundamental contributions to supply chain management and transportation problems and more essential contributions are expected in response to the new research challenges. This paper has summarized some of the major trends but several others are behind the corner. Opportunities for the consolidation of goods and people on the same vehicle are already arising. For example, customers may deliver goods of other customers, for a small economic incentive. Revenue management is another research area that was only marginally mentioned in this paper. Operational research is more vital than ever and can add relevant value to new available technology.
