Optimizing Method of Express Delivery Network and Vehicle Routes Based on Automatic Parcel Machine

Article Preview

Abstract:

An express delivery mode based on automatic parcel machine (APM) is put forward and the delivery system is optimized in this paper. The optimization problem is described as a mathematical programming model, and the improved twice dynamic clustering algorithm and the C-W saving algorithm are developed for solving it. Obtained results show that the mode and the express delivery system have great practical application value and popularized significance.
