Summary

The aim of this paper is to present an approach to the design of a Decision Support System for the dynamic routing of the various types of vehicles that are necessary for the daily distribution of the ready concrete product. This paper consists of two parts: in the first part the problem is analytically presented, thus setting the basics for building the problem’s model. At the same time special focus has been devoted in analyzing the corresponding parameters. In the second part the effort is to determine the information needed and the information available with respect to the techniques and the methods that are used in the optimization process. In addition, the workflow of the routing and scheduling procedures are presented. This is followed by the presentation of a prototype Decision Support System.
