Choice-driven dial-a-ride problem for demand responsive mobility service

Michel Bierlaire, Shadi Sharif Azadeh, Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

Urban mobility services face the challenge of planning their operations efficiently while complying with user preferences. In this paper, we introduce a new mathematical model called a choice-driven dial-a-ride problem (CD-DARP) which is a generalization o ...

Passenger-centric timetable rescheduling: A user equilibrium approach

Michel Bierlaire, Stefan Yves Gabriel Binder, Shadi Sharif Azadeh, Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

Unexpected disruptions commonly occur in the railway network, causing delays, and extra cost for operators and inconvenience for passengers by missing their connection and facing overcrowded trains. This paper presents a passenger-centric approach for time ...

The Impact of Collaborative Scheduling and Routing for Interconnected Logistics: A European Case Study

Michel Bierlaire, Jianghang Chen, Shadi Sharif Azadeh, Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

Interconnected logistics system can play an important role towards having a more sustainable green freight transport. Recently, after introducing the concept of Physical Internet (PI), researchers have started to explore the opportunities and challenges th ...

Waste collection inventory routing with non-stationary stochastic demands

Sacha Varone, Michel Bierlaire, Iliya Dimitrov Markov, Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

We solve a rich routing problem inspired from practice, in which a heterogeneous fixed fleet is used for collecting recyclable waste from large containers over a finite planning horizon. Each container is equipped with a sensor that communicates its level ...

Hybrid Cyclicity: Combining The Benefits Of Cyclic And Non-Cyclic Timetables

Michel Bierlaire, Tomas Robenek, Shadi Sharif Azadeh, Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

We propose a new type of timetable that would combine both the regularity of the cyclic timetables and the flexibility of the non-cyclic ones. In order to do so, several combinations of the two timetables are considered. The regularity is incorporated in t ...

An integer programming approach to scheduling the transshipment of products at cross-docks in less-than-truckload industries

Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

This paper introduces an exact method to schedule the internal transshipment process at cross-docks in less-than-truckload industries. An integer programming formulation is presented to minimize the cost of double handling by synchronizing two types of dec ...

The multi-objective railway timetable rescheduling problem

Michel Bierlaire, Stefan Yves Gabriel Binder, Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

Unexpected disruptions occur for many reasons in railway networks and cause delays, cancelations, and, eventually, passenger inconvenience. This research focuses on the railway timetable rescheduling problem from a macroscopic point of view in case of larg ...

Exogenous priority rules for the capacitated passenger assignment problem

Michel Bierlaire, Stefan Yves Gabriel Binder, Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

We propose a novel algorithm for the capacitated passenger assignment problem in public transportation where exogenous priority lists define the order in which passengers are assigned. Separating explicitly theses rules from the assignment procedure allows ...

Vehicle routing with cross-dock selection

Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

The vehicle routing problem with cross-dock selection is a variant of the vehicle routing problem containing spatial and load synchronization constraints by which products are transferred and processed via at least one cross-dock. This paper presents a mat ...

Optimizing transshipment workloads in less-than-truckload cross-docks

Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

This paper presents a scheduling model to enhance cross-docking operations. It attempts to reduce the transshipment workload by minimizing the total number of products that require double-handling. We formalize the problem and represent its mathematical fo ...
