Increasing capacity at ports and goods movement in the supply chain in general, while also satisfying environmental, economic, political, labor union, and other constraints is, arguably, the greatest challenge of modern transportation. With space at a premium and costs through the roof, it is increasingly obvious that the traditional solutions are not feasible in the short or even medium term. However, advances in information technology, telecommunications, data management, and computation tools, coupled with recent research in systems optimization and control, may provide promising new approaches. Bringing together experts from industry, academia, and other stakeholders, Intelligent Freight Transportation addresses freight transportation problems by raising issues, proposing solutions, and discussing obstacles from different points of view.
