We study the linked tactical design problems of fleet sizing and partitioning a service region
into vehicle routing zones for same-day delivery (SDD) systems. Existing SDD studies focus …

Problem definition: Online food delivery (OFD) platforms have witnessed rapid global
expansion, partly driven by shifts in consumer behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic …

We study the design of same-day delivery (SDD) systems under the assumption that service
regions are allowed to vary over the course of the day; equivalently, that customers in …

We tackle the problems of workforce sizing and shift scheduling of a logistic operator
delivering parcels in the last-mile segment of the supply chain. Our working hypothesis is …

With the rapid expansion of e-commerce and the resulting surge in parcel delivery demands,
the integration of trucks and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) in last-mile package …

We study a system in which a common delivery fleet provides service to both same-day
delivery (SDD) and next-day delivery (NDD) orders placed by e-retail customers who are …

This paper uses the Antecedents, Decisions, and Outcomes (ADO) format, supported by the
SPAR-4-SLR protocol, to understand the social changes resulting from increasingly faster …

This paper provides empirical evidence on consumer responses to autonomous last-mile
delivery, drawing on Alibaba's recent implementation. We leverage customer-level data from …

Motivated by applications in e-commerce logistics where orders or items arrive at different
times and must be dispatched or processed in batches, we propose the subadditive …

We study a system in which a common delivery fleet provides service to both same-day
