Two recent events have significantly affected logistics operations. Brexit has resulted in depressed demand, reduced trade, and fewer goods moving between the U.K. and E.U. It has also led to mandatory border checks, delays at ports, and concerns over drivers' availability and proficiency in operating. The COVID-19 outbreak has generated high costs and disruptions for logistics companies. Many businesses are struggling to operate under COVID-19 restrictions due to a reduced workforce or difficulty maintaining safety in the workplace. The combination of significantly depressed demand and increased cost and uncertainty within supply chains will significantly impact the effectiveness, efficiency, fairness, and costs of all sectors of logistics transportation, and need to be integrated into logistics management. This project will leverage the industrial knowledge of the professional body, CILT(U.K.), in logistics management. Combined with fundamental research in mathematical modelling and algorithmic engineering, we will approximate the optimal routing, packing, scheduling, delivery, and other aspects of logistics management. With better efficiency in this sector, we will support the needs of U.K. businesses, boost their competitiveness, stimulate economic growth in emerging markets, and improve people's quality of life.

最近发生的两起事件对物流运营产生了重大影响。英国脱欧导致需求低迷、贸易减少以及英国和欧盟之间流动的货物减少。它还导致了强制边境检查、港口延误以及对司机的可用性和操作熟练程度的担忧。 COVID-19 的爆发给物流公司带来了高昂的成本和中断。由于劳动力减少或难以维持工作场所安全，许多企业在 COVID-19 限制下难以运营。需求的显着低迷与供应链内成本和不确定性的增加相结合，将显着影响物流运输各环节的有效性、效率、公平性和成本，需要将其纳入物流管理。该项目将利用专业机构 CILT（英国）在物流管理方面的行业知识。结合数学建模和算法工程的基础研究，我们将逼近物流管理的最佳路线、包装、调度、交付等方面。通过提高该部门的效率，我们将支持英国企业的需求，提高其竞争力，刺激新兴市场的经济增长，并改善人们的生活质量。
