DESCRIPTION:Prof. Ola Jabali (Politecnico di Milano)\nAs part of the 20th
  Swiss Transport Research Conference (STRC 2020)\, the keynote speech of 
 Prof. Ola Jabali (Politecnico di Milano) will be broadcasted in the follo
 wing YouTube live streaming:  https://youtu.be/8DY1Nyn7OSI\n\nTitle: Us
 ing Electric Vehicles for Goods Distribution\n\nAbstract: The issues relat
 ed to the use and integration of electric vehicles in logistics activities
 \, have triggered a wide range of transportation science problems. In this
  talk we review recent advances in this area. In particular\, we present b
 attery charging and discharging patterns that need to be considered. We di
 scuss the modelling of battery degradation processes. These are integrated
  within the context of scheduling charging activities at depots. Furthermo
 re\, considering energy consumption uncertainty\, we examine issues relate
 d to designing reliable routes. Finally\, we elaborate several formulation
 s and algorithmic components for situations where electric vehicles may de
 viate from their routes to perform recharging activities.\n \nBio: Ola 
 Jabali is an associate professor at the operations research and discrete 
 optimization group of DEIB (Dipartimento di Elettronica\, Informazione e B
 ioingegneria) at  Politecnico di Milano. She is also an affiliated Profes
 sor at HEC Montréal\, and a collaborating member of the Interuniversity R
 esearch Centre on Enterprise Networks\, Logistics and Transportation (CIRR
 ELT). Before joining Politecnico di Milano\, she was an assistant Professo
 r at the department of logistics and operations management of HEC Montréa
 l. She obtained her Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering from the Eindhoven Uni
 versity of Technology. She has a B.Sc. and an M.Sc. in Industrial Enginee
 ring from Technion - Israel Institute of Technology. Her research interes
 ts deal with modelling realistic problems arising in transportation\, prod
 uction and logistics. She mainly focuses on optimizing goods transportatio
 n\, in particular problems related to pollution\, uncertainty\, fleet comp
 osition and customer service.\n
