Abstract

Freight transportation at distribution nodes such as marine ports, airports and rail yards has been putting tremendous environmental pressure in metropolitan areas. A prerequisite for proposing any solution that would make the existing systems more efficient is an accurate analysis and understanding of freight movements. A single model cannot fully capture aspects of freight transportation which interact and affect each other in a complex manner. Rather, integration of a variety of legacy simulation and analysis tools along with holistic optimization is a necessity for freight transportation system design. This paper proposes an integrated modeling and simulation framework for freight transportation using semantic web technology which offers benefits of modularity, extensibility and reusability of both code and design to the applications. We discuss the implementation strategies and methods to achieve these goals and identify some of the key research challenges in realizing our framework vision.

构建大都市区域货运综合建模与仿真框架

海运港口、机场、铁路站场等集散点的货物运输给大都市地区带来了巨大的环境压力。提出任何提高现有系统效率的解决方案的先决条件是对货物流动的准确分析和理解。一个单一的模型不能完全捕捉货物运输的各个方面，这些方面以复杂的方式相互作用和影响。相反，整合各种传统仿真和分析工具以及整体优化是货运系统设计的必要条件。本文提出了一种基于语义web技术的货运集成建模与仿真框架，该框架具有代码和设计的模块化、可扩展性和可重用性。我们讨论了实现这些目标的实施策略和方法，并确定了实现我们框架愿景的一些关键研究挑战。
