The continuing boom in e-commerce is creating growing parcel flows worldwide, which puts distribution networks under intense pressure. Delayed or mishandled items is a major concern for parcel and mail service providers, who have to comply with strict service level agreements.
It is crucial to efficiently adapt network utilization according to strongly fluctuating item volumes and available sortation and transport capacities in each connected node. This is difficult to achieve when communication and information between sorting centers is limited.
