Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, have emerged as a promising mode of fast, energy-efficient, and cost-effective package delivery. A considerable number of works have studied different aspects of drone package delivery…
With the recent technological innovation, unmanned aerial vehicles, known as drones, have found numerous applications including package and parcel delivery for shippers. Drone delivery offers benefits over conventional ground-based vehicle…
Recently, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), as known as drone, has become an alternative means of package delivery. Although the drone delivery scheduling has been studied in recent years, most existing models are formulated as a single…
Advanced technological breakthroughs and exceptional levels of innovation are enhancing the capabilities and potential of autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or drones), and in so doing attracting the interest of a broader swath of…
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have drastically gained popularity in various Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) applications to improve the safety and efficiency of transportation systems. In this context, the combination of ground…
Current drone delivery solutions mainly focus on single package delivery using one drone. However, the recent developments in drone technology enable a drone to deliver multiple packages in a single trip. We use the nearest destination…
Drones have been considered as an alternative means of package delivery to reduce the delivery cost and time. Due to the battery limitations, the drones are best suited for last-mile delivery, i.e., the delivery from the package…
The increasing demand for fast and cost effective last mile delivery solutions has catalyzed significant advancements in drone based logistics. This research describes the development of an AI integrated drone delivery system, focusing on…
The use of delivery services is an increasing trend worldwide, further enhanced by the COVID pandemic. In this context, drone delivery systems are of great interest as they may allow for faster and cheaper deliveries. This paper presents a…
Bi-modal delivery systems are a promising solution to the challenges posed by the increasing demand of e-commerce. Due to the potential benefit drones can have on logistics networks such as delivery systems, some countries have taken steps…
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or drones, are increasingly being used to deliver goods from vendors to customers. To safely conduct these operations at scale, drones are required to broadcast position information as codified in remote…
Problem definition: Drones, despite being acknowledged as a transformative force in the city logistics sector, are unable to execute the \textit{last-meter delivery} (unloading goods directly to customers' doorsteps) due to airspace…
We propose a novel framework for composing Swarm-based Drone-as-a-Service (SDaaS) for delivery. Two composition approaches, i.e., sequential and parallel are designed considering the different behaviors of drone swarms. The proposed…
The integration of small-scale Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) into Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs) will empower novel smart-city applications and services. After the unforeseen outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the public demand…
Collaboration between drones and trucks in a last-mile delivery system offers numerous benefits and reduces many challenges of the traditional delivery system. Here, we introduce Drone-Delivery Packing Problem, where a set of parcels,…
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become important in many applications including last-mile deliveries, surveillance and monitoring, and wireless networks. This paper aims to design UAV trajectories that simultaneously perform multiple…
This paper investigates the optimal infrastructure planning and order assignment problem of an on-demand food-delivery platform with a mixed fleet of drones and human couriers. The platform has two delivery modes: (a) ground delivery and…
The adoption of Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for last-mile deliveries will affect the energy productivity of package delivery and require new methods to understand the associated energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.…
We propose a novel framework for the allocation of drone swarms for delivery services known as Swarm-based Drone-as-a-Service (SDaaS). The allocation framework ensures minimum cost (aka maximum profit) to drone swarm providers while meeting…
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have significant practical advantages for delivering packages, and many logistics companies have begun deploying UAVs for commercial package deliveries. To deliver packages quickly and cost-effectively, the…
