About
Evangelos I. Kaisar is a transportation and logistics researcher whose work sits at the intersection of supply chain optimization, last-mile delivery systems, and emerging autonomous technologies. His research has made significant contributions to the growing field of e-grocery delivery, addressing real-world challenges through advanced computational and algorithmic frameworks. Kaisar is perhaps best known for his development of hybrid optimization approaches to complex delivery problems. His highly cited 2021 paper introducing a hybrid artificial immune algorithm for Van-Robot e-grocery delivery systems garnered 41 citations, demonstrating the value of combining traditional vehicle routing with autonomous delivery robots. Building on this foundation, his 2022 work on Physical Internet-enabled e-grocery delivery networks, which accumulated 31 citations, advanced the field by tackling load-dependent two-echelon vehicle routing problems with mixed vehicle fleets. More recently, Kaisar has turned his attention to system resilience, exploring how Autonomous Delivery Robots can maintain service continuity during unforeseen disruptions — shifting the optimization focus from pure cost reduction to minimizing unfulfilled customer demand. Collectively, his research has helped shape modern frameworks for scalable, intelligent, and robust urban logistics systems, making him a noteworthy voice in next-generation delivery network design.
