What is it about?
Logistics is an important driver for every single economy. Our research shows that by using a software based loading decision firms can optimize the container capacity. This research simulated the container space for both 40' and 20' containers through a scientific approach and demonstrated that container space can be maximized in both the cases. Through this types innovative experimental approaches firms can minimize their cost while maximize their profits.
