Rapid Branching
(2012)
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.
