         ENTITY PROFILE
         The Transport  Logistics  and  Operations  Management  Research  Group  (Let  &  Go)  is
         part of the Department of Civil Engineering at the Polytechnic University of Madrid. The
         School of Roads, Canals and Ports (ETSI) of the Polytechnic University of Madrid has a
         line of transport research called the “h lite Team”. The activities developed by the h lite
         Team are linked to the operation and planning of transport and transport logistics which
         are all supported by mathematical tools with a special emphasis on data mining and
         modelling for artifi cial intelligence.
