| Abstract: | A guaranteed time distribution system is organized so that movement of items between any source-destination pair, serviced by the system, is completed within a guaranteed period of time. Various express mail services are examples of such distribution systems. The movement of items between source and destination consists of a combination of different models of travel with varying speeds, for example trucks, airplanes, etc. Decisions have to be made regarding the location of accumulation points at which changes in the mode of travel occur. |
