The first step of the research involved a comprehensive literature review and study of current intermodal systems, with the objective to identify major bottlenecks and inefficiencies. The first section of the final report contains the analysis of strategy and operations for intermodal freight transportation. The second section of the report describes a new model for intermodal network design. Specifically, the authors consider the problem of service design for express shipment delivery involving both ground and air transport. A subproblem embedded within this intermodal network design problem is the integer multicommodity flow problem. This problem is described and a new solution approach for this problem is detailed in the third section of the final report.
