Abstract

A new approach to some optimization problems arising in the transport logistics was proposed. Consideration was given to the fundamental problems of the today logistics such as the problem of optimal arrangement and that of identification and segmentation of the logistic zones. They are solved using the “wave” method which relies on the analogy between the determination of the global extremum of the integral functional and propagation of light in an optically inhomogeneous medium. A numerical algorithm was developed, and the results of calculations presented.
