Zusammenfassung:Methods and systems for optimizing allocation of personnel and equipment to on-highway freight movement. A network of segments and nodes are defined with relation to an existing highway system. Resources as units of work are then allocated and directed to use the network in particular ways. Improvements in equipment utilization, personnel utilization, transit time and driver at-home time are realized. L'invention concerne des procédés et des systèmes pour optimiser l'affectation de personnel et d'équipement au transport de fret sur route. Un réseau de segments et de nœuds est défini relativement à un système routier existant. Des ressources telles que des unités de travail sont ensuite affectées et dirigées pour utiliser le réseau de diverses manières particulières. Des améliorations de l'utilisation de l'équipement, de l'utilisation du personnel, du temps de transit et du temps au domicile des conducteurs sont réalisées.
