• An decision support system to long haul freight transportation by means of ant colony optimization 

      Sicilia, Juan Antonio ; Royo-Agustin, Beatriz; Quemada-mayoral, Carlos; Olivares-Colay, María José; Larrodé, Emilio (Dyna, 01/2015)
      This paper presents an original tool to optimize the long-distance freight transport by road based on an original methodology for allocating communication roads depending on the volume of orders. The goal this system ...
    • Decision model for siting transport and logistic facilities in urban environments: A methodological approach 

      Frailea, Alberto; Larrodé, Emilio; Magreñán, Á. Alberto ; Sicilia, Juan Antonio (Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 01/2016)
      In this study, based on the use of a geographic information system (GIS), we define a decision model for determining the possible optimal locations of various facilities in an urban setting, which can be used by the transport ...
    • Solving a long-distance routing problem using ant colony optimization 

      Sicilia, Juan Antonio ; Oliveros, María-José; Larrodé, Emilio; Royo, Beatriz (Applied Mathematics and Information Sciences, 2015)
      This paper presents a mathematical model and an algorithm based on ant colony optimization to solve a long distance routing problems. The size of freight is relatively small, which uses Last In First Out “LIFO” policy and ...
