Abstract
Techniques for a package selection feature for selecting subsets of packages and generating instructions to deliver selected packages are described herein. A model may be generated for recursively determining future forecast for potential deliveries associated with a geographic location based at least in part on capacity constraints, delivery vehicle capacity, and historical delivery data for the geographic location. Information that identifies a set of packages for delivery to the geographic location during a first duration may be received. A value for each subset of a plurality of subsets for the set of packages may be determined based on an algorithm that uses the future forecasts and the information. A particular subset may be selected for delivery to the geographic location for a given carrier during a duration based on an algorithm that uses various parametric values for the particular subset, the future forecasts, and the information.
