The use of game theory in urban transport planning

Every day the traffic is becoming more complex, especially traffic in big cities. In order to make efficient decisions on the traffic organization in cities various activities are necessary: gathering, grouping, selection, and data analysis, then usage of quantitative and simulation methods as base for decision-making, regardless of the decision-making level: strategic, tactical or operative decisions. Within quantitative decision-making methods special place belongs to the game theory. The paper presents how additional information is included in the mathematical model in order to make the optimal decision. In general, the mathematical model of selecting the destination terminal has been processed and the numerical example has been presented for better explanation of the selection procedure.

Application of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Logistic Processes

In order to respond to the challenges of modern society, the organization of logistic processes requires synergistic optimization effects of physical processes and application of innovative technologies. The emphasis is based on continuous optimization of the processes with the aim of faster, more quality and more cost-effective services to the end user. In this paper possibility and potential of UAV (Unmanned aerial vehicle) application in logistics processes will be explained. Processes as stock inventory in warehouses and others can be improved with application of UAV.

Dynamic Optimization in Supply Chains

Production and stock optimization in supply chains representsextremely complex problem, because it determines the optimumquantity production in time. Due to their multilevelednature, those problems are mostly solved by application of differentmethods and models of dynamic programming. Theproblem addressed in this scientific debate refers to determinationof optimum quantity of production and stocks within thesupply chain in a certain period of time, as well as in eachsub-interval of the said period, but with the condition that theproduction and stock expenditure remains minimal and thatthe predetermined demand in every sub-interval and throughoutthe entire observation period remains satisfied.
