PhD Defence Mathijs van Zon
In his dissertation ‘Cost Allocation in Collaborative Transportation’ Mathijs van Zon considered a centralised horizontal collaboration between logistic service providers that is governed by a third party. He focused on how to determine a stable allocation of the overall cost or profit among the logistic service providers. Second, Mathijs focused on a centralised horizontal collaboration that is not governed by a third party. He studied this setting both analytically and numerically for collaborations in transportation, and provided insights into the value of the quality of an algorithm in collaborations.
