Abstract :
In today´s home delivery business, drivers are often required to manage irregular-demands from customers. To cope with those demands smoothly is one of the main issue on home delivery, because when achieved, it will strengthen market competitiveness. The relation between the temporal labour capacities of the total driver and the amount of unsolved irregular-demands, in a particular area, can be theoretically drawn by the same numerical formula that explains the relation between the amounts of fighting forces and casualties in warfare, presented by Lanchester and by Osipov which is called the “Lanchester´s square law”. By choosing proper historical data and applying the formula, the efficiency of several kinds of command and communication systems used in aerial battles can be found out in a numerical figure; historical evidences shows that the communication condition will influence the efficiency of air force. In addition, route delivery drivers and fighter pilots share one same condition: teamwork required under limited means of communication. From these facts, the author will construct the best communication system for delivery drivers, derived from air combat history, which is the main aim of this study. Also, communication devices needed to enhance the system will be argued.
