Seasonality analysis

Freight modeling is currently a very hot topic in the US, and California currently has its CSFFM being developed at UCI by a team to which I belong. First of all, there are two main streams of freight modeling. The first one has a more urban accent to it, and usually models truck movements, like the one used by SCAG. The second type is a commodity-based model, like our very own CSFFM.

Shortest Path - Djikstra in MS Excel

It was not hard to decide which would be the first post of this blog. More than an useful algorithm, it presents a good example of how simple OR tools can bring big improvements for a company’s process. Back in 2005, when I took a course in algorithm implementation with Prof. Claudio Cunha, I was presented with a paper called “Shortest Path Algorithms” by Gallo and Pallottino. Even though this paper is quite old, it explores very well the importance of data structures on the performance of algorithms.
