9 How It Works in Transportation Networks VOL: 10 PALLETS SLA: 5 DAYS VOL: 5 PALLETS SLA: 2 DAYS VOL: 10 PALLETS SLA: 10 DAYS 20% 60% 20% VOL: 10 PALLETS SLA: 10 DAYS 120% 80% 20% 60% VOL: 5 PALLETS SLA: 8 DAYS 20% 60% 100% 60% 40% Imagine It is important the power to of be having able to a assess single This system alternate order that has routes, can a automatically shortest meet journey services plan and re-plan levels and a route network minimum like cost. this, as but events the occur, capacity such is as not new available orders being added on one or of resource the legs. availability changes.
10 Transport Logistics Network Complexity Real-time scheduling with shrinking time windows Large & complex networks (> 1000 orders per day, > 100 locations, > 50 vessels ) Less-than-Truck loads requiring effective consolidation Need to find backhaul opportunities Intensive use of crossdocking operations Trailer swaps Numerous constraints on products, locations, dock doors, vehicles: types, availability, compatibility Individual Service Level agreements with major clients Own and third-party fleet Fixed and flexible schedules Dependent schedules (trailers, drivers, dock doors, etc) Activity Based Cost Model Other client-specific requirements Most of large & complex transport networks are still scheduled manually!
11 MAT Schedulers: Screens Example
12 Ontology as a Way to Capture Domain Knowledge Describe your classes of concepts and relations
13 Logic of Multi-Agent Scheduling Existing schedule New Order arrives Pre-matching New order wakes up Truck 3 agent and starts talking to him Truck 3 evaluates the options to take New order Truck 3 wakes up Order 3 agent and asks it to shift Order 3 analyzes the proposal and rejects it Truck 3 asks New order if it can shift to the right Truck 3 decides to drop Order 3 and take New order Agents of New Order and Truck 3 disappear Order 3 starts looking for a new allocation and finally allocates on Truck 1 by shifting Order 1 Time Truck 1 08: :00 20:00 Order 1 Truck 2 Can you shift to the right? Truck 3 Order 3 Can you shift to the left? Which Truck looks like the best for me? New order I can take New order if I: Shift Order 3 to the left Shift New order to the right Drop Order 3 My time window is too tight I cannot shift Order 2 No Can you transport me? Back Next
14 Logic of Multi-Agent Routing A Cross dock 1 X B Z C Cross dock 2 Consider business-network of a company Y 1.Order1 goes from Location C to Location Z 2.Order2 goes from Location B to Location X 3.Order3 appears, which goes from Location A to Location Z 4.Order3 decides to go to B and then travel with Order 2 via cross-dock1 5.Order4 appears, which goes from Location A to Location Y 6.Order3 decides to travel the first leg with Order 4 and the second leg with Order 1 via crossdock 2, to avoid going alone from A to B Back Next
15 Case Study: UK Logistics Operator Network Characteristics: 4500 orders per day Order profile with high complexity Many consolidations should be found Few Full Truck Load orders Few orders can be given away to TPC Majority of orders require complex planning the price of a mistake is high 600 locations Large number of small orders 3 cross docks 9 trailer swap locations 140 own fleet trucks, various types 20 third party carriers Carrier availability time Different pricing schemes Problems to be Solved: Location availability windows Backhaul Consolidation Vehicle capacity Constraint stressing Planning in continuous mode Dynamic routing Cross-docking Handling driver shifts Key Problem: Real-time planning in a highly complex network with X-Docks and Dynamical Routing
16 Summary of Benefits (Before / After) BEFORE IMPLEMENTATION AFTER IMPLEMENTATION Two operators worked for a day to make a schedule for 200 instructions Planning day 1 for day 3: no chance to Support backhauls and consolidations in real time No software for schedule 4000 orders With X-Docks and Drivers (manual procedure only) Knowledge was hard to share, it was spread among different experts Hard to consider various criteria quickly and choose the best possible option 8 minutes to schedule 200 transportation instructions Planning day 1 for day 2 and even day 1 for day 1 4 hours to plan orders 4000 orders via X-Docks and ability to add new orders incrementally (a few seconds for a order) Capture best practice and domain knowledge in ontology. New knowledge can be inserted quickly. Choosing the best route from the point of view of consolidation or other criteria
17 Case Study: Taxi Dispatching (UK) Network Characteristics: Call centre with about 130 operators A fleet of more than 2,000 GPS-based vehicles More than 13,000 orders per day A large variety of clients, e.g., personal, corporate, VIPs, with a variety of discounted tariffs A large number of freelance drivers At any time around 700 drivers are working concurrently, competing with each other for clients Guaranteed pick up of clients in the centre of London within 15 minutes from the time of placing an order Unpredictability of the traffic congestion in various parts of London causing delays and consequently the interruption of schedules, unpredictability of times spent in queues at airports and railway stations Car 222 Order A pick-up Order B Car 111 Order A drop Problems to be solved: React on events in real time Provide individual approach to clients Balance costs vs time and risks Increase efficiency of business Satisfy drivers Key Problem: Real-time resource reallocation
18 Case Study: UK Corporate Taxi Company Main Results: The system began its operation and maintenance phase in March 2008, only 6 months from the beginning of the project The total number of processed orders increased +7% (1000 orders per day * 20 pounds cash in average) in a first month with the same number of resources 98.5 % of all orders were allocated automatically without dispatcher s assistance The number of lost orders was reduced to 3.5 (by up to 2 %) The number of vehicles idle runs was reduced by 22.5 % Each vehicle was able to complete two additional orders per week spending the same time and consuming the same amount of fuel, which increased the yield of each vehicle by 5 7 % Profitability Increase: +4.8% Orders collecting time: 40% faster Time for Operators Training: 4 times less ROI: 6 months
