Usage of Dynamic Programming Method in Transport and Logistics Centers Construction and Development Projects

摘要

This article provides a comparative analysis of the concepts of a transport and logistics center and a multimodal transport and logistics center. An assessment is given of the development of the railway transport infrastructure in connection with trade and economic cooperation with the countries of the Asia-Pacific region. An analysis of development stages methodology based on the dynamic programming method of transport infrastructure objects is carried out and the possibility of applying this technique to projects of multimodal transport and logistics centers is revealed. Introduced the term "transport microsystem", which is used to consider the objects complex interacting with the transport and logistics center. The existing development stages methodologies, studied by Russian scientists, are analyzed. Based on the compared methods, the authors of the article proposed two approaches to the application of the dynamic programming method in the construction and development projects of multimodal transport and logistics centers. In the first approach, these objects are considered separately from each other, but taking into account their mutual influence. In the second approach, the elements of this system are studied in a complex, as part of one enlarged transport object. For clarity of the analysis of approaches, "time-state" diagrams were constructed, their functional features are described. The advantages and disadvantages of these approaches are identified, the conclusion is drawn on the possibility of their application in complex projects of construction and development of multimodal transport and logistics centers.
