JOpt - the optimization and scheduling machine for your dispatching software
JOpt is a product-line to perform automatic resources planning and tour optimization tasks. Based upon a combination of classic construction and memetic algorithms the JOpt products are tailored to meet the requirements of various optimization problems for different industries. Our products JOpt.ASP, JOpt.SDK, JOpt.NET and JOpt.J2EE cover the full range from cost effective desktop solutions up to professional modules for modern enterprise service architectures. The JOpt product library is easily integerated into your product and can be customized by yourself to meet your special requirements or to adapt for the specific needs of the industries in which your software products are used. JOpt will be the component of your choice if you are looking for:
- a .NET/ASP or Java/J2EE compliant resource & vehicle routing software component with a standard .NET, SOAP or API interface
- an adaptable component to solve VRP, CVRP and VRPTW class problems
- an optimization component or application with different constraints such as time windows, capacity, skills or others
JOpt - this component solves your optimization job
Many different optimization goals can be achieved using the different modes JOpt offers. You can adjust JOpt to
- plan a set of trucks operated from a single depot or from several depots
- use all available resources or just the necessary number of resources to fulfil a given set of tasks
- detect difficult jobs and exclude them in order to avoid tour distortions
- allocate the jobs to the resources so that some tasks are only done by special resources
- assure that important jobs are done in a preferred way
These are just few examples of many different adjustments you can pass to JOpt so that you get the tour optimization results you need. Follow the tutorial and test the free version available at the download section to see the possibilies of JOpt.
- optimization as a service

JOpt enables fleet operators to save fuel and reduce emissions
JOpt comes with an emission calculation and optimization scheme that allows fleet
operators to optimize their overall carbon dioxide emission. JOpt determines an optimum energy efficiency schedule in terms of 
truck payload to empty ratio and as overall road mileage. Hence vehicles can automatically be dispatched in a way that leads to minimum fuel consumptions and emissions while keeping all other planning objectives.
