    The Benefits and Price of Hyperconnectivity in last mile delivery
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2021-06) Leveque, Johan ; Klibi, Walid ; Stauffer, Gautier
    We investigate the impact of mutualizing the delivery network design of several delivery actors. While a lot of companies are redesigning their urban delivery network by adding optimally positioned micro-hubs to city inner centers, a lot of them are including new delivery methods such as cargo-bike. Contrary to vans, cargo bikes have the possibility to effectuate several delivery shifts per day, making them much more agile in a hyperconnected delivery network. Sharing the benefits of mutualizing several delivery actor’s network provides a better quality of service, such as same day delivery, by creating a denser network. On the other hand, optimally designing a shared network leads to additionnal hidden costs due to sub-optimality.

    Modularization of Delivery and Transportation
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2021-06) Kim, Nayeon ; Montreuil, Benoit ; Klibi, Walid
    Traditional static and optimization based transportation planning and operation system has limitations on supporting highly dynamic, hyperconnected, multi-player logistics system in Physical Internet. Modularizing delivery and transportation can enable flexible transportation operations to adapt to such highly dynamic environment with potentially reduced planning effort. The modularization schemes are categorized into regional, hierarchical, and functional modularization. Regional modularization replaces a long route with many shorter routes, or modules, interconnected via PI hubs. Hierarchical modularization implements a multi-tier transportation system where each tier becomes a module connected via PI hubs. Functional modularization is to ensure each route serves a single functionality, each of which requires different resources. All three modularizations can increase flexibility of planning and operation while increasing the consolidation level and efficiency. Experimental results applying hierarchical and functional modularization for last mile delivery shows up to 27% of operational cost savings.
