Abstract :
The aim of load matching at truck is to make the truck cargo stowage reasonable in volume, weight and loading sequence of a distribution area, to raise efficiency of truck and to reduce costs of the distribution. An effectual truck stowage planning model is built. The model can equilibrate the truck cargo weight and the volume and make the transport resources more effective. The opinion of backtrack programming for use the truck load matching is proposed, which is an important technique for solving combinatorial search problems and can choose suitable cargo for truck in a short time. This technique is proved to be highly effective by examples.
