Application of technological means and modelling of process activity in transport terminals

Abstract

This article deals with the analysis of technological means application and modelling of processes activities in transport terminals. The author describes the analysis of management by complex technical systems and estimates models' using in transport terminals. An analysis procedure for the location of transport terminals that integrates facility costs, transportation costs and service responsiveness is developed in the paper. The procedure integrates ideas in queuing theory, discrete choice location analysis and multi-objective decision-making.
