Objective

Achieving sustainable mobility is considered one of the most important challenges to be solved by humanity. In recent years, new challenges around recent developments in the field of transportation have evolved.

Digitalization has brought new concepts and actors into the mobility sector; non-motorized transport has risen in many cities, whilst urbanization tendencies have increased the overall pressure on cities’ mobility systems. Furthermore, challenges that exist since a long time, such as congestion or high emissions, have not yet been solved.

In this regard, the joint conference MOVICI – MOYCOT will focus on showing advancements in related topics that contribute to this propose. This joint conference will bring together academic experts, practitioners and decision makers to discuss the challenges of the Building the City of Tomorrow.

Speakers of special sessions

• Intelligent Transportation Systems based on Computer Vision Techniques

Organizers: Prof. Sergio Velastín, Ph.D. y Jorge E. Espinosa, M.Sc.

• Optimization models in city logistics

Summary

The importance of optimizing merchandise distribution processes in urban environments is latent due to the need to achieve several objectives related to the lowest possible cost for companies, increase the level of customer satisfaction and mitigate the negative impacts of these processes in cities, such as vehicle stagnation and physical and chemical pollution. In this sense, the proposal of optimization models that lead more efficient distribution processes in terms of the aforementioned objectives is relevant. The purpose of this Workshop is to discuss different models and optimization tools applied in the improvement of merchandise distribution processes in cities, and works related to the following topics are welcome:

• Exact, heuristic and metaheruristic algorithms applied in the optimization of transport processes in urban environments.

• Optimization models of distribution networks in urban environments.

• Computational tools applied to optimize the urban distribution of goods.

Application of information and communication technologies - ICT in the improvement of urban goods distribution processes.
