Our research here is directed toward the snow plow routing problem. We have developed some artificial intelligence based solutions that are proving to be effective. Such non-deterministic methods allow solutions that take into account minimization of u-turns, prioritization of arterial roads, route allocation, etc. We have published a couple theory papers and a trade journal report. We also are starting to work with local highway superintendents. At this time we are actively seeking other collaborators!!! Please let me know if you'd like to discuss this more.
