транспортная задача
Совокупность всех компонентов, которые должны быть обеспечены и задействованы для осуществления транспортного обслуживания Игр, включая предоставление услуг в объеме, необходимом для удовлетворения потребности в транспортном обслуживании, с использованием улучшенных транспортных возможностей города-организатора, а также дополнительных транспортных услуг, предоставляемых клиентам во время проведения Игр.

транспортная задача
Одна из наиболее распространенных задач математического программирования (обычно — линейного). В общем виде ее можно представить так: требуется найти такой план доставки грузов от поставщиков к потребителям, чтобы стоимость перевозки (или суммарная дальность, или объем транспортной работы в тонно-километрах) была наименьшей. Следовательно, дело сводится к наиболее рациональному прикреплению производителей к потребителям продукции (и наоборот). В простейшем виде, когда распределяется один вид продукта и потребителям безразлично, от кого из поставщиков его получать, задача формулируется следующим образом. Имеется ряд пунктов производства A1, A2, …, Am с объемами производства в единицу времени (месяц, квартал), равными соответственно a1, a2, …, am и пункты потребления B1, B2, …, Bn, потребляющие за тот же промежуток времени, соответственно b1, b2, …, bn продукции. В случае, если решается закрытая (сбалансированная) задача, сумма объемов производства на всех m пунктах-поставщиках равна сумме объемов потребления на всех n пунктах-получателях: Кроме того, известны затраты по перевозке единицы продукта от каждого поставщика к каждому получателю — эти величины обозначим cij. В качестве неизвестных величин выступают объемы продукта, перевозимого из каждого пункта производства в каждый пункт потребления, соответственно обозначаемые xij. Тогда наиболее рациональным прикреплением поставщиков к потребителям будет то, при котором суммарные затраты на транспортировку будут наименьшими: При этом каждый потребитель получает нужное количество продукта и каждый поставщик отгружает весь произведенный им продукт Как и во всех подобных случаях, здесь также оговаривается неотрицательность переменных: поставка от какого-то пункта производства тому или иному пункту потребления может быть равна нулю, но отрицательной, т.е. следовать в обратном направлении, быть не может. Поскольку принято, что затраты на перевозки растут здесь пропорционально их объему, то перед нами задача линейного программирования — одна из задач распределения ресурсов. Несбалансированную (открытую) Т.з. приводят к виду, показанному выше, искусственно: в модель вводятся так называемые фиктивный поставщик или фиктивный потребитель, которые балансируют спрос и потребление. В настоящее время разработано множество различных алгоритмов решения Т.з.: распределительный метод, метод потенциалов, дельта-метод, венгерский метод, метод дифференциальных рент, способ двойного предпочтения, различные сетевые методы. Они относительно просты, по ним составлены десятки программ для различных вычислительных машин. Во многих снабженческих, транспортных и других организациях во всем мире с их помощью рассчитываются маршруты доставки материалов на строительные площадки, планы длительного прикрепления поставщиков металлопроката к потребителям, планы перевозок топлива. Задачи эти часто усложняются разного рода дополнительными условиями; например, в них включается расчет не только себестоимости перевозок, но и себестоимости производства продукции (производственно-транспортная задача), оптимизируется совместно доставка взаимозаменяемых видов продукции (скажем, различных кровельных материалов), оптимизируется доставка грузов с промежуточными базами (складами). Кроме того, следует учитывать, что экономико-математическая модель Т.з. позволяет описывать множество ситуаций, весьма далеких от проблемы перевозок, в частности, находить оптимальное размещение заказов на производство изделий с разной себестоимостью.
