Path and Speed Planning Online Platform for Energy-Efficient Timely Truck Transportation

Abstract

Huge fuel consumption is a big challenge in trucking industry. Meanwhile, deadline is also a common constraint for truck transportation. Research [6, 8] has shown that truck fuel consumption can be significantly reduced by path and speed planning. However, current online route planning platform such as Google Maps, Here Map, etc. does not provide path and speed planning function specifically for energy-efficient timely truck transportation. In this demo, we implement an online path and speed planning platform for energy-efficient timely truck transportation. We design techniques to speed up the dual-based algorithm proposed in [6] and integrate it into a user-friendly and agile online platform.
