Cost against emissions in urban delivery networks
Centre of Machine Intelligence and Data Science, IIT Bombay
At IIT Bombay, I am developing mathematical models using algorithms for urban delivery networks that balance operating costs with greenhouse gas emissions. The research considers a two-stage system involving trucks, electric two-wheelers, and delivery robots. I am examining how different budgets and transport choices affect the tradeoff between cost and emissions.
