Optimal placement of logistics centers in the Republic of Azerbaijan
Abstract. The paper addresses the problem of determining the optimal location of prospective logistics centers in the territory of the Republic of Azerbaijan. The best cost-effective option, namely the placement of logistics centers in the nodal points of transport corridors or in close proximity to them, is proposed for solving the problem. A mathematical model of cost-effective location of a logistics center based on notional information about the coordinates of logistics terminals and customs posts, drivers' work and rest time standards, economic areas where cargo is collected and distributed, as well as centers that provide maintenance and repair services for motor vehicles is also given.
