Definition
调度 (diào dù) means 'to dispatch/schedule' — it focuses on allocating vehicles, staff, or tasks in dynamic logistics operations. As a noun, it refers to the dispatcher. Unlike 日程 (rì chéng 'itinerary') or 时间表 (shíjiānbiǎo 'timetable'), 调度 is about real-time coordination, not a static plan.
