While great progress has been made in many areas, new requirements to handle increasingly complex constraints are constantly coming up. One such challenge is a new type of resource constraints that are used to deal with the state-of-charge of battery-electric vehicles, which have limited driving ranges and need to be recharged in-service. Resource constrained vehicle scheduling problems can classically be modelled in terms of either a resource constrained (multi-commodity) flow problem or in terms of a path-based set partition problem. We demonstrate how a novel integrated version of both formulations can be leveraged to solve resource constrained vehicle scheduling with replenishment in general and the electric bus scheduling problem in particular by Lagrangian relaxation and the proximal bundle method.

T1 - Duty Scheduling Templates JF - Proceedings of Conference on Advanced Systems for Public Transport 2012 (CASPT12) N2 - We propose duty templates as a novel concept to produce similar duty schedules for similar days of operation in public transit. Duty templates can conveniently handle various types of similarity requirements, and they can be implemented with ease using standard algorithmic techniques. They have produced good results in practice.

T1 - Rapid Branching JF - Public Transport N2 - We propose rapid branching (RB) as a general branch-and-bound heuristic for solving large scale optimization problems in traffic and transport. The key idea is to combine a special branching rule and a greedy node selection strategy in order to produce solutions of controlled quality rapidly and efficiently. We report on three successful applications of the method for integrated vehicle and crew scheduling, railway track allocation, and railway vehicle rotation planning.
