Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for selecting an optimal courier route from a plurality of courier routes offered.
  • Courier trips ie the direct transfer of objects, usually documents or documents from a geographical point X to a geographical point Y, are the subject of services for which there is increasing demand in modern societies.
  • Courier trips are traditionally carried out in such a way that a separate courier driver is provided for each courier route, who covers the courier route from its starting point to its end point in order to deliver an item.
  • the traditional system for coping with Courier trips have the disadvantage that they rely on a special group of people who are responsible for carrying out the courier trips, which, due to the limited number of people, is inflexible, slow and expensive and for transport routes that are managed by plane or car. is environmentally harmful.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device for selecting an optimal courier route from a plurality of courier routes offered, which makes it possible to use the already existing worldwide passenger traffic to provide predetermined courier services.
  • a data processing system having a microprocessor unit and a memory unit, an interface for reading in data and an interface for reading out data, a program for controlling the microprocessor unit being stored in the memory unit, with the following steps:
  • B reading in a start point and an end point of a plurality of courier routes in each case; C determining the distance between the starting point of the predetermined target courier route and the starting point of one of the plurality of courier routes offered; D determining the distance between the end point of the target courier route offered and the end point of one of the majority of the courier routes offered; E Form the sum of the distances determined in step C and step D.
  • the courier route offered in which the distance determined in step E is minimal compared to the other distances determined in step E, is the optimal courier route offered and is determined and displayed by the data processing system according to the invention.
  • a data processing system with a microprocessor unit and at least one memory unit and an interface for reading in data and an interface for reading out data is provided in conjunction with a program stored in the memory unit for controlling the microprocessor unit, that the steps
  • C Determine the distance between the starting point of the predetermined target courier route and the Starting point of one of the majority of the courier routes offered: D determining the distance between the end point of the target courier route offered and the end point of one of the majority of the courier routes offered; E Form the sum of the distances determined in step C and step D.
  • the interface for reading in data is designed as a keyboard device.
  • the reading in of data relating to the starting points and ending points of predetermined target courier routes and offered courier routes can be read in manually by the data processing system of the device according to the invention.
  • the interface for reading in data is designed as an interactive connection to a server data processing device networked on the Internet. This ensures that reading Courier journey-specific data can be read into the data processing system of the device according to the invention via external data processing devices networked via the Internet.
  • the interface for reading out data can be designed as a monitor device in the device according to the invention. It is thereby achieved that an interpretation of the data supplied by the device according to the invention is made possible by a person on site.
  • the interface for reading out data in the device according to the invention can be designed as an interactive connection to a server data processing device networked on the Internet. This ensures that the data supplied by the device according to the invention can be interpreted by people at remote locations.
  • the program which is stored in the memory unit of the data processing system, is stored in a server data processing device networked on the Internet. It is thereby achieved that the device according to the invention can be operated via the Internet regardless of location.
  • the program which is stored in the memory unit of the data processing system, is iterative for courier trips composed of flight routes and routes is applicable. It is thereby achieved that an optimal courier route can be selected from the plurality of courier route routes offered for each partial route of a composite predetermined courier route route.
  • a geographic map with a road network and a flight network of a predetermined region is stored for the distance determination in steps C and D m of the storage unit, a calculation unit being provided which selects from the set Roads or flight routes of a courier route carry out a distance calculation.
  • the distance can be calculated by measuring the length of a corresponding section of the road or a flight route. This enables both simple and reliable distance calculation.
  • a table is stored in the storage unit for the distance determination in steps C and D, from which the distances between two cities or towns can be called up in digital form. This enables a very quick determination of the distance.
  • Fig.l is a schematic representation of a preferred embodiment of the device according to the invention.
  • a data processing system 14 with an internal, not shown Microprocessor unit and an internal storage unit (not shown), an interface 15 for reading in data and an interface 16 for reading out data, a program for controlling the microprocessor unit being stored in the storage unit, with the steps: reading in a start point and an end point of a predetermined target -Kurier marsumble; Reading a starting point and an end point of a plurality of courier routes offered; Determining the distance between the starting point of the predetermined target courier route and the starting point of one of the plurality of courier routes offered; Determining the distance between the end point of the target courier route offered and the end point of one of the plurality of courier routes offered; Forming the sum of the distances determined in step C and

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif servant à sélectionner une course optimale pour des services de messagerie, à partir d'une pluralité de courses proposées. Pour permettre cette sélection, en utilisant un moyen de transport de personnes déjà existant, on fait appel à une unité de traitement de données comportant une unité microprocesseur et au moins une unité mémoire, une interface servant à l'introduction des données et une interface servant à leur extraction. Un programme pour commander l'unité microprocesseur est stocké dans l'unité mémoire.
