Scattered express parcel cooperative collection method

Abstract

The invention discloses a scattered express parcel cooperative collection method, and belongs to the technical field of logistics and optimization algorithms, and the method specifically comprises the steps of enabling a user to submit express parcel information to a cooperative parcel collection distribution system; determining a parcel distribution scheme through the received express parcel information; determining a courier receiving path for each alliance by adopting a nearest neighbor algorithm; and determining the actual payment amount of the user by adopting a cost allocation mechanism. Under the condition of considering the courier moving cost and the parcel collection route, the express parcel cooperative distribution problem is converted, then the alliance structure is obtained by adopting the express parcel cooperative distribution algorithm, and the courier parcel collection route is determined for each alliance by adopting the nearest neighbor algorithm according to the determined parcel distribution scheme; and finally, the actual payment amount of the user is determined by adopting a cost allocation mechanism. According to the invention, the average payment cost of the user is reduced, and a parcel collection path is determined for a courier; the invention can be widely applied to parcel collection of scattered express parcels.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of logistics and optimization algorithms, and in particular relates to a method for picking up parcels in cooperation with scattered express delivery. Background technique [0002] The sharing economy represented by shared bicycles and shared cars shows strong economic vitality, can effectively save resources and promote the effective use of resources. In recent years, it has attracted the close attention of domestic and foreign researchers. In view of the current development of the domestic express delivery industry, but the cost of express delivery, including the cost of transportation, sending, sending, and sending points, the express business volume has increased sharply. In addition, many users choose couriers to pick up their parcels at their door, which makes the traditional courier payment mechanism no longer applicable. In the traditional express network, when the sender submits a request on the ex...

Problems solved by technology

An interesting and practical problem is that in the traditional non-cooperative method, each user does not care which courier point picks up the parcel when sending the parcel, and the platform will automatically send it according to the area where the user is located. Assigned to the responsible courier station, under the current package billing standard, it is often "overpaid" during the delivery process. For example, if the weight of the item is lower than the first weight, then the price will be paid according to the first weight price. Of course, the same reason For , when the weight of the item is lower than the continuous weight unit, it will be rounded up
