....freight. Research in pickup and delivery problems includes variations on the well known Vehicle Routing Problem and, more recently,work on stochastic dynamic vehicle routing #see Powell et al. 1995 for example#. Linehaul costs are addressed in the network con#guration literature, suchasPowell and She# #1989# and Roy and Delorme #1989#. We address the less studied componentof handling costs. Handling freightinanLTL terminal is labor intensive, and therefore expensive, because workers must quickly sort a variety of freight. An inexpensiveway to removework from the system is to assign destination ....

....different local optimization algorithms tuned to the requirements of each center separately. The local optimizer services could also be given manually by a transportation coordinator in dispatch centers that do not use automatic optimization. Interactive routing is discussed in (Waters 1984) and (Powell Sheffi 1989). 5 A good overview of centralized routing algorithms is given in (Bodin et al. 1983) 3 Local control In TRACONET, an agent first calls its own local optimizer to make the routing decisions concerning the deliveries and vehicles that belong to the associated dispatch center. Based on these ....
