Special issue on recent advances in urban transport and logistics through optimization and analytics

Abstract

There has been a significant body of research on making urban transportation more efficient and sustainable. Planning of urban transportation services is challenging due to the crowded traffic infrastructure, increasing customer expectations, and rules set by municipalities. In recent years, a vast amount of urban transportation data has become available, e.g., travel times and customer demand data. This special issue intends to establish the landscape for the state-of-the-art in urban transportation involving optimization and analytics.
