Summary

Course deal with applications of optimizing methods in transportation systems. In the course the emphasis will be on perfect mastery of the methodology of mathematical modeling of the solved processes taking into account all the decisive factors and the specifics influenced by the optimized process, using the knowledge gained from the subjects focused on technology and management in the given mode of transportation. In the case of transportation processes, the modeling of which can be used for more optimization approaches, the student will know their advantages and disadvantages and make the selection of the most suitable one.
