This volume gives an overview on new theoretical approaches on computer-aided methods for strategic and operational planning in public transport. The papers of this volume cover the most important steps of the complete process of planning and operational control in public transport and public mass transit. Readers of this book obtain detailed information on current developments in vehicle and crew scheduling and in solving such problems in practice. Interesting results in scheduling theory are shown, using procedures for solving combinatorial problems with more complex structures. Furthermore, experiences in the application of specific software tools are presented.
This proceedings volume consists of papers presented at the Sixth
International Workshop on Computer-Aided Scheduling of Public
Transpon, which was held at the Fund lio Calouste Gulbenkian in
Lisbon from July 6th to 9th, 1993. In the tradition of alternating
Workshops between North America and Europe - Chicago (1975), Leeds
(1980), Montreal (1983), Hamburg (1987) and again Montreal (1990),
the European city of Lisbon was selected as the venue for the
Workshop in 1993. As in earlier Workshops, the central theme dealt
with vehicle and duty scheduling problems and the employment of
operations-research-based software systems for operational planning
in public transport. However, as was initiated in Hamburg in 1987,
the scope of this Workshop was broadened to include topics in
related fields. This fundamental alteration was an inevitable
consequence of the growing demand over the last decade for
solutions to the complete planning process in public transport
through integrated systems. Therefore, the program of this workshop
included sections which dealt with scheduling problems and
computerized systems for operational planning as well as sections
on network planning and data management.
This volume consists of papers presented at the Fourth
International Workshop on Computer-Aided Scheduling of Public
Transport, which was held in Hamburg from 28th to 31st July 1987.
The first of this series of Workshops was held in Chicago in 1975.
Papers presented then tended to look forward to what might be done
in the future application of computers to problems in transit
scheduling. No presentations described systems which had been
implemented and were being used on a regular basis, although a few
papers discussed apparently successful once-off applications in
both bus scheduling and bus crew scheduling (or run-cutting).
However, within a few months of the end of that first workshop some
systems had been implemented, both in Europe and in North America.
By the time of the second Workshop, in Leeds in 1980, several
systems were in regular use. Most of the crew scheduling
implementations were based on heuristic methods (e.g., RUCUS),
although mathematically based methods were being used in Quebec
City and in Hamburg, and several papers described further
mathematical methods in the course of development. A wide variety
of bus scheduling approaches was reported, many of them being in
regular use.
Sollen Mobilitat und Lebensraum im Europa des 21. Jahrhunderts
erhalten bleiben, so sind Konzepte gefordert, die einen Beitrag zur
wirtschaftlichen und oekologisch vertretbaren Mobilitatsbewaltigung
leisten. Das Buch bietet hierzu einen umfassenden Einstieg in das
Informationsmanagement im Verkehr. Ausgehend von UEberlegungen zu
einem Ebenenmodell des Informationsmanagements lassen sich aus
betriebswirtschaftlichen und entscheidungsorientierten
Anforderungen Unterstutzungsleistungen ableiten, die unter
Verwendung geeigneter Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien
zu erbringen sind. Im Vordergrund der Betrachtungen stehen die zu
fordernden Funktionalitaten an entsprechende Applikationen und die
hierfur benoetigte Infrastruktur. Anhand von Beispielen aus der
Praxis werden Anwendungen aus den Bereichen oeffentlicher
Personenverkehr, motorisierter Individualverkehr und Guterverkehr
vorgestellt.
