Wherein the preset threshold may be pre-stored in the electronic device.
Specifically, the upper limit of the flow of the directed edge between the delivery site and the sink may be set according to the delivery capacity of each delivery site, for example, assuming that one delivery site can process the goods transported by U vehicles at the same time, that is, the upper limit of the site busyness of the delivery site is U, and the upper limit of the flow of the corresponding directed edge is set as U.
In this optional embodiment, the upper limit of the flow of the directed edge between the second node and the sink is the upper limit of the busyness of the site corresponding to the delivery site, and when the delivery site of each carrier is determined, the total flow of each delivery site cannot exceed the upper limit of the busyness of the site, so that the carrier is prevented from being jammed, and the delivery efficiency is prevented from being affected.
