基于p-中位模型的单目标物流配送时间点决策

Time points decision of single target logistics delivery based on p-median model

为了确定最佳的配送时间点,利用p-中位模型,研究单配送目标物流配送的时间点决策问题,建立了最少配送次数、最短配送时间和运费有折扣情况下最低运输成本的数学模型,并以航空货物配送为例,利用ILOG优化软件分别计算了3种模型的配送时间点。计算结果表明:实现最少配送次数需要的平均配送时间是最短平均配送时间的1.6倍,在运费有折扣情况下实现最低运输成本所需配送时间比没有折扣情况下的略长;货主或者物流服务商可以根据客户要求选择相应的模型,确定配送时间点,实现最优决策。

In order to decide the best delivery time points, three cases of single delivery target were studied by using p-median model, the mathematical models of least delivery times, minimum delivery time and minimum transportation cost under the condition of freight discount were build, and taking air cargo transportation as a case, their delivery time points were calculated by using ILOG optimization software. Analysis result shows that the average delivery time of least delivery times is 1.6 times higher than the average minimum delivery time, and the delivery time of realizing minimum transportation cost under the condition of freight discount is longer than that without freight discount. So consignors or logistics service providers can choose the models to decide the best delivery time points according to customer requirements. 6 tabs, 17 refs.
