An enhanced pricing model for truck transportation: a case study in Swedish forestry
Abstract Determining freight rates for heavy trucks involves a detailed analysis of multiple cost factors, including time, distance, fuel, and other operational costs, which collectively contribute to the overall compensation for transportation services. However, actual remuneration is based on more simplified agreements.

Supply Potential and Cost of Residual Forest Biomass for New Industrial Applications in Sweden
This work investigates the potential for logging residues (branches and tops that can be extracted during roundwood harvesting) to replace fossil‐based feedstocks and energy use in industry, using Sweden as a case study. To do so, this paper quantifies regional supply–demand balances for logging residues considering both current and possible future ...

Applying of the NVIDIA CUDA to the video processing in the task of the roundwood volume estimation
The paper is devoted to the parallel computing. The algorithm for roundwood volume estimation had insufficient performance so it was decided to port its bottleneck part on the GPU. The analysis of various GPGPU techniques was observed and the NVIDIA CUDA
