One information technology that may be considered by transportation managers, and which is included
in the portfolio of technologies that encompass TMS, is artificial neural networks (ANNs). These
artificially intelligent computer decision support software provide solutions by finding and recognizing
complex patterns in data. ANNs have been used successfully by transportation managers to forecast
transportation demand, estimate future transport costs, schedule vehicles and shipments, route vehicles
and classify carriers for selection. Artificial neural networks excel in transportation decision environments
that are dynamic, complex and unstructured. This article introduces ANNs to transport managers by
describing ANN technological capabilities, reporting the current status of transportation neural network
applications, presenting ANN applications that offer significant potential for future development and
offering managerial guidelines for ANN development
