The goal is to provide a service that is both attractive for passengers and can be operated economically. To date, timetable optimization is generally done with respect to fixed passenger routes, i.e., it is assumed that passengers do not respond to changes in the timetable. This is unrealistic and ignores potentially valuable degrees of freedom. We investigate in this paper periodic timetabling models with integrated passenger routing. We propose several models that differ in the allowed passenger paths and the objectives. We compare these models theoretically and report on computations on real-world instances for the city of Wuppertal.}, language = {en} } @misc{BorndoerferDittbrennerLangenhanetal., author = {Bornd{\"o}rfer, Ralf and Dittbrenner, Bastian and Langenhan, Andreas and Seidl, Stephan and Weider, Steffen}, title = {Integrierte Dienst- und Dienstreihenfolgeplanung zur Erh{\"o}hung der Fahrerzufriedenheit}, issn = {1438-0064}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-50270}, abstract = {Wir stellen einen mathematischen Optimierungsansatz zur integrierten Dienst- und Dienstreihenfolgeplanung im {\"o}ffentlichen Nahverkehr vor, mit dem sich bei konstanten Personalkosten die Fahrerzufriedenheit deutlich steigern l{\"a}sst.}, language = {de} } @misc{SchenkerBorndoerferSkutella, author = {Schenker, Sebastian and Bornd{\"o}rfer, Ralf and Skutella, Martin}, title = {A novel partitioning of the set of non-dominated points}, issn = {1438-0064}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-61286}, abstract = {We consider a novel partitioning of the set of non-dominated points for general multi-objective integer programs with \$k\$ objectives.

This problem is a special type of vehicle routing problem and builds up an integrated model, consisting of a tour planning and a duty rostering part. The tours should guarantee a network-wide control whose intensity is proportional to given spatial and time dependent traffic distributions. We model this using a space-time network and formulate the associated optimization problem by an integer program (IP). Since sequential approaches fail, we integrated the assignment of crews to the tours in our model. In this process all duties of a crew member must fit in a feasible roster. It is modeled as a Multi-Commodity Flow Problem in a directed acyclic graph, where specific paths correspond to feasible rosters for one month. We present computational results in a case-study on a German subnetwork which documents the practicability of our approach.}, language = {en} }
