This paper focuses on problems associated with the deployment of automatic agents for last-mile delivery. We propose a framework and methodology to systematically evaluate and compare different hybrid strategies. Performance metrics in agent noise, delivery time, energy consumption, coverage rate, package throughput, and system costs are defined rigorously and modeled mathematically. Using the met...
