Mathematical model for solving operational problem of regional cargo transportation

The task of operatively to provide cargo transportation with the given kinds of available vehicles is actual at operative planning of work of logistic centres. In the case of non-transit transporting planning, the amount of available vehicles is critical, which in some cases does not allow the fulfilment of orders to the full extent. The use of transit transport allows to reduce the volume of unfulfilled orders. The article presents a formal setting of the given problems in the form of multi-index problems of linear programming. Special cases of problems, which allow to use effective algorithms for their solution, are noted.
