[0055] Figure 3 This is a structural block diagram of a terminal device provided by an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0056] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0058] S1. Obtain vehicle capacity information, flight dynamic information, and order information, wherein the order information includes the order origin and pickup time, as well as the order destination and delivery time;

[0059] S2. Determine a method for segmented transportation of the order based on vehicle capacity information, flight dynamic information, and order information, where the segmented transportation method includes air transportation and land transportation;

[0060] S3. Construct a scheduling model in sections according to the order segment transportation method, and carry out land-air combined transportation based on the results of the scheduling model.

[0061] In one implementation, a mixed integer linear model is used based on China Southern Airlines Logistics' current land-air intermodal transport scenarios. Technically, a model is built for a specific business scenario, and the optimal solution can be found within that scenario. Business-wise, the system automatically calculates multiple available routes based on existing flight routes, warehouses, cargo terminals, origins, and destinations, taking into account factors such as capacity, cost, and timeliness. Routing and dispatch orders are automatically generated to ensure optimal timeliness and cost, thereby improving logistics efficiency, effectively scheduling and utilizing resources, and increasing business volume.

[0064] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present invention, Yen's algorithm is an efficient algorithm for finding K disjoint shortest paths in a graph. During the generation and pruning of shortest paths, information from the previous shortest path can be used to guide the search for the next shortest path, avoiding repeated calculations and improving computational efficiency.

An optimization model is established for each section. Among them, the customer-city cargo station and city cargo station-airport models are based on the results of the airport-airport model. (1) Flight scheduling model (airport-airport model): considering constraints such as flight capacity and order time constraints, flights are allocated to orders with the comprehensive cost time as the goal, and the airport loading and unloading time, the detour time of the land transport vehicle, and the slack time are considered.

With the total cost minimization goal such as comprehensive transportation distance cost, appropriate connecting point routes and vehicles are allocated to orders. (3) Door-to-city freight station scheduling model (customer-city freight station): Based on the city freight station to airport scheduling model, the latest arrival time of the corresponding goods at the city freight station, transportation time and other information are obtained to establish the time constraints of the door-to-city freight station section, and the vehicle load constraints are taken into account. With the goal of minimizing the total cost, appropriate delivery vehicles are allocated to the orders.

[0105] The land-air transport scheduling module 23 is used to construct a scheduling model in sections according to the order segment transportation method, and perform land-air transport according to the results of the scheduling model.

[0106] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present invention, the modeling is based on the actual business scenarios of China Southern Airlines Logistics and is carried out in a segmented manner according to the order. Route splitting is automatically achieved, and after splitting, a model is established for each business scenario: the entire logistics transportation process is a door-to-door multimodal transport scheduling problem, and the different scheduling segments are coupled with each other. The solution space for this type of multimodal scheduling problem is large, and the problem scale grows exponentially with the number of orders. In addition, the problem is also subject to many complex constraints, including time window constraints and capacity constraints. Therefore, in order to obtain a suboptimal solution within an acceptable time, the idea of problem decomposition is adopted to automatically decompose the multi-segment scheduling of freight orders into shipping resource scheduling and land transportation resource scheduling.

[0107] It should be noted that the cargo flight scheduling optimization system provided in an embodiment of the present invention is used to execute all the process steps of a cargo flight scheduling optimization method in the above embodiment.

The processor 31 is the control center of the terminal device, and uses various interfaces and lines to connect the various parts of the terminal device.

[0113] The memory 32 mainly includes a program storage area and a data storage area. The program storage area can store an operating system, at least one application required for a function, and the data storage area can store related data. In addition, the memory 32 can be a high-speed random access memory or a non-volatile memory such as a plug-in hard disk, a smart media card (SMC), a secure digital (SD) card, or a flash card.

The method for dispatching land-air transport according to claim 5, characterized in that: The cold storage constraints include: The latest arrival time of the output order at the city freight station: Among them: VC v It is of Boolean type, indicating whether the vehicle v is a refrigerated truck; is a Boolean variable, which is 1 if the delivery vehicle v of order k is connected with the line r, otherwise it is 0 r∈R k ,v∈V r ;OC k It is a Boolean type, which determines whether the order k is for refrigerated goods; sT k represents the departure time of the flight assigned to order k; Indicates that order k corresponds to airport A k cargo transit time; Indicates that the connecting line is between the airport and the cargo terminal w k The transportation time and loading / unloading time between k , k∈K; It represents the cargo loading / unloading time of order k at the corresponding city freight station.

9. A dispatching system for land-air transport, characterized in that: include: An information acquisition module, configured to acquire vehicle capacity information, flight dynamic information, and order information, wherein the order information includes the order origin and pickup time, as well as the order destination and delivery time; A segmented transportation determination module is used to determine the segmented transportation method of the order based on vehicle capacity information, flight dynamic information, and order information, where the segmented transportation methods include air transportation and land transportation; The land-air intermodal transport scheduling module is used to construct a scheduling model in sections according to the order segmentation method, and carry out land-air intermodal transport based on the results of the scheduling model.

10. A terminal device, characterized in that: include: A processor, a memory, and a computer program stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the processor, wherein when the processor executes the computer program, a scheduling method for land-air transport according to any one of claims 1 to 8 is implemented.
