Summary

The on-going globalisation and the increasing demand for flexibility in modern businesses have made transport, together with business logistics, a major functional domain. Transport growth is essentially for economic growth but is not without negative impacts.

The international contributions push forward frontiers in freight transport modelling and analysis.
