Emerging Delivery and Mobility Services

This chapter focuses on emerging delivery logistics and mobility services under the influence of advanced technologies in support of connected and automated transportation. Emerging technologies lead to the trend of transforming transportation into a service, sometimes referred to as smart mobility, which will potentially lead to a shift in the desire of individuals to own their vehicles as the shared mode of transportation. As the planning and delivery process of goods transportation in a supply chain, logistics are associated with all activities in the supply chain, which will be greatly influenced by the trend of automation by using unmanned delivery systems. As technologies such as smartphones, advanced computing, and wireless technologies, as well as Internet of Things have been rapidly evolving, some innovative ideas have been inspired with an attempt to provide efficient and safe transportation services by leveraging such emerging technologies. As a result, new mobility concepts and available solutions will appear in the models of on-demand mobility services to services providing convenient and flexible transportation alternatives.
