CACI'S USE OF SIMULATION IN NATIONAL FREIGHT TRANSPORTATION MODELS

A national freight transportation network model developed by CACI has been used for a number of simulation studies. Two of these are described in this paper, a freight transportation energy use study and the current National Energy Transportation Study. The paper is concluded with an application of these models in the commercial sector.
