模块化车队组合问题中的网络拓扑和时间关键性效应
Network Topology and Time Criticality Effects in the Modularised Fleet Mix Problem
摘要：
在本文中，我们探讨了军事物流系统中网络拓扑结构和时间关键性之间的相互作用。这项工作（和以前的工作）的总目标是评价陆运需求，或更具体地说，如何设计适当的一般军事车辆车队，负责向分散在行动区的军事单位提供补给和再补给。本文的重点是更好地了解当前具有固定运输特性的陆军车辆被新一代模块化车辆所取代时，后勤环境如何变化，这些车辆可以根据具体任务进行配置。实验工作是在一个成熟的战略规划仿真环境中进行的，该环境包括一个用于自动采样补给和再补给任务的情景生成引擎和一个用于解决特定调度和路由问题的多目标Meta启发式搜索算法（即进化算法）。本文中提出的结果可以更好地了解如何（以及在什么条件下）模块化车队可以提供优于目前实施的系统。
英文摘要：
In this paper, we explore the interplay between network topology and time criticality in a military logistics system. A general goal of this work (and previous work) is to evaluate land transportation requirements or, more specifically, how to design appropriate fleets of military general service vehicles that are tasked with the supply and re-supply of military units dispersed in an area of operation. The particular focus of this paper is to gain a better understanding of how the logistics environment changes when current Army vehicles with fixed transport characteristics are replaced by a new generation of modularised vehicles that can be configured task-specifically. The experimental work is conducted within a well developed strategic planning simulation environment which includes a scenario generation engine for automatically sampling supply and re-supply missions and a multi-objective meta-heuristic search algorithm (i.e. Evolutionary Algorithm) for solving the particular scheduling and routing problems. The results presented in this paper allow for a better understanding of how (and under what conditions) a modularised vehicle fleet can provide advantages over the currently implemented system.
