Abstract
In this chapter, the route-based request exchange mechanism proposed by Wang and Kopfer (2014) to solve the collaborative routing problem of horizontal coalitions of independent freight forwarding companies introduced in the last chapter is described. In the scenario studied in this chapter, both the own capacity and those of the members in horizontal coalitions are considered. The main challenges of our design are to ensure that exchanged bundles can be exactly evaluated, to guarantee the protection of private information, and to deal with the difficulties caused by introducing capacity restrictions.
