Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: This study addresses the problem of car allocation to different routes under certain restrictions with the objective of reducing the excess cost of transportation. A meta-heuristic approach based on Ant Colony Optimisation (ACO) algorithm is proposed and implemented to schedule the cars efficiently along the routes under the existing logistics. A mathematical model with two objectives is formulated for this purpose and solved in two phases. In the first phase, sequences of allocated cars are determined while in the second, car allocation scheme for each trip is determined using ACO algorithm. The simulation study is carried out from the empirical distributions of distance and time, follod by the sensitivity analysis on the basis of their stochastic behaviour. The cost benefit analysis shows a projected savings in terms of reduction of cost of travel, both with respect to distance and time, through the solutions obtained.
